"THIS is not rain, not ground clutter (the radar beam picking up objects close the radar site --which is in Loudoun County).... the Hydrometeor Classification algorithm identifies this as biological in nature..so likely CICADAS being picked up by the radar beam…"

pretty wild if true.

The bugs falling to the water are pecked three or four times, and then dragged under... the smallest of bluegills are keyed in, but no evidence of a carp cloop or bass swirls. I fished several hours and in nearly every spot, it was the same story, the gills were smashing my bug every cast.

A larger bass also took the fly but I put the screws to him too hard as he dove into the weeds and off he went. I spotted a few carp sunning, but none eating cadas, and these fish had no interest in even well placed flies.
