Initially they are all cream colored, with wings that look like a disco globe. Then a day or two after they have emerged they are greenish on their bellies, black on top, with brownish/orange legs and transparent wings. Yep. Once they have been around awhile they are pale greenish/brown and black. No orange hues at all. And coffee colored wings. What color are the ones around your area ?
dan hufferd Posted May 21 Posted May 21 They were all over Stockton yesterday. I remember the first time I ever saw the little bright colored ones, we were in Branson I think it was at least 15 yrs ago maybe more. Johnsfolly 1

The last 13+17 year hatch that I recorded was in June 2011. That was when we were fishing those bluegill in my earlier post. dan hufferd 1
Gavin Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Didnt get any cicada action, but hit wild trout creek. It got boring after a half hour. Rainbow trout cannot resist the peach glo ball in cloudy water. Flysmallie and dan hufferd 2

You'd think that since they waited 17 years to do that....at least ONE OF THEM would act a little more excited. 🙄 Might as well be doing dishes, or folding laundry.
