The Cicada is a realistic imitation of the loudest meal of the summer: a stout brown body, flat pale wing laid over the back, long antennae, and rubber legs. When cicadas are in the trees, every fish in the river knows the sound of one hitting the water—and moves toward it.
Cicada feeding is opportunistic and violent; trout that ignore size-18 mayflies will cross a river for this much protein. A bank-water specialist from the first buzz of June onward.
Best for:
- Cicada summers and brood years
- Banks under trees and cliffs
- Big-fish terrestrial fishing
📌 Pro Tip: Land it hard—a cicada hits the water like a dropped key ring, and the splat is the dinner bell. Then let it sit until the rings vanish before the first twitch.
