I haven't been able to wet a line in almost 2 freakin' weeks, I'm tired of this stupid "responsibility" thing! 
I'm having some major withdrawl!!! I'm especially bummed that I missed some op's to go fishing with sero :/
Yesterday, I went to a wedding down in the southern tier... They made the major mistake of having an outdoor wedding on the banks of the Susquehanna (which I'm probably spelling wrong, I can't even say it right, hah)... Not for a second could I take my eyes of the water, I think I saw like 2 minutes of wedding inbetween watching bugs come off the river.
...I nearly had to bite my tongue off to keep from shouting in excitement when I saw the coolest mayfly i've ever seen.... I've never seen one of these before, and it rocked my world, what an absolutely gorgeous specimen...
A PMD!!! I've seen the flies to imitate them, but, never seen one in the flesh.... how damn gorgeous. Man that yellow-ish color is surreal. I've gotta get some lemon woodduck feathers, even if I never see one again, I've got to tie an imitation now.
On the way home, just after dusk following route 12 north along some other southern tier river... I started to see what I thought were rain drops on the windshield... but it looked like snow in the headlights... Nope, a thiiiick hatch smashing on my windsheild. Mel says "is it because we're next to a river that the bugs are so thick?", "yep.... and they're hatching this thick just to spite me, hey we're on 12 already, let's just keep going north past utica"
...I gotta get my butt out there. I'll be back with an "actually fishing" report, asap
