Since the Cicada are laying all over my yard I thought I would see if they would be good fish bait. I think I'm on to something. 42 BIG Bluegill & 1 Crappie in 2 hours. I threw back about 15. They sure were fun to catch on ultralite tackle.

To me that is the best eating fish in the river. The wife and I had a mess last night for supper, with home made hushpuppies and baked beans. I know you had fun cathing them also. Way to go.

Several years ago the 17 year cicadas returned to central Pa. We knew they were coming and prepared. We tied cicada patterns and got out our heavier flyrods so we could cast those HUGE flies. Had a blast on a famous Pa. limestone stream catching those usually very selective wild brown trout!
