    Sunny Bugs

    VERY BIG ONES
    Very Sunny Bugs ?
    who knew ?
    WALLPAPER:  MONSTERS ATTACKING
    -------  
    .. We've been taught by the local experts that the little mayflies get smaller as the seasons move toward Winter.
    .. We've also been taught that all the mayflies like the weather sort of dreary and overcast.
    .. We've have been taught so many things that we believe what is repeated by "those that know."
    COULD BE BIG GREEN DRAKES ?
    .. Seldom have we been  taught about these big bugs that appeared on the Madison River yesterday about noon in the bright mid day sun - in late October.
    .. The days have been bright and too warm. It should be 60°F today and may reach 65°F tomorrow. We'll take it.
    .. Somewhere in a box we even have some big flies for the occasion. We certainly hope that they come to visit again. The fish liked them so, we will too. Some of the neighbors think that these are late blooming Ephemerella  grandis - some say  Drunella grandis - we certainly don't know the difference - if any.
