Hatching of May Flies

[mcnerney]

JP sent me this video yesterday showing hatching may flies and after viewing it I thought everyone would like to see it. It is pretty interesting! Thanks again JP!

Awesome! that was pretty cool... I especially liked the fish leaping out the water to take them...

JP: You are probably correct, but it sure is interesting to watch.

That's really cool, never seen anything like it. Those fish probably feel like I do when I leave the Golden Corral buffet dinner

WOW! I'm ready for that!

Absolutely terrific video, guys. I'm guessing it took place on an English stream because of the narrator's accent. If so, that explains why fly-fishing apparently originated in Old Blighty - hatches like that with fish jumping like that would give anyone ideas.

Those are BIG mayflies. They look a bit like the Michigan mayflies here in the states but with dun wings.
