Trout and Bass Can't Resist These 17-Year Cicadas

No comments yet

The 17 year Brood XIV did not disappoint. We had excellent dry fly fishing with large Cicada imitations. The trout and bass were feeding aggressively and very willing to take a fly. In this video we fish in North Central Pennsylvania for both wild trout and large mouth bass. We had a great time enjoying an emergence we won't see again for 17 years!

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
