Where are the cicadas ( 17 yr locust) right now in Va?
Those things bring a lot of big fish of all species to the surface. Please tell us if they are in your area. Thanks

Monster crop in orange last week, in the grass, trees, you name it. Most of this area has had a surge.

Amherst County is run over with them right now. You're right GN, big fish love them. I caught a 38lb 13oz 47" long Carp on one last year !

They're on the southside of Bedford. Young friend of mine killed a bird Sat in Huddleston with 17 cicadas in his craw

Had them big time in Roanoke/Franklin/Botetourt last year. Haven't seen or heard the first one this year. Big fish at the lake on them when they happen. Can you say Black Tiny Torpedo!

Have taken many trips out to central and eastern va, and my windshields haven't enjoyed goochland/powhatan areas, fluvanna areas, appomatox/lynchburg areas, or brunswick areas! Its kinda crazy the cut off line is almost immediate from those places! I have heard a couple stragglers in bedford, but not the big deal like last year!
