The flies were out in full force at Windigo on May 19th. I heard Feldtmann was really bad too. Not many skeeters yet where I was (Daisy Farm, S Desor, Washington Creek), but lots of bees at Washington Creek.

Re: Early spring for the bugs?
Ya Hooky. But honestly, I think that would usually be the case in most given years. By late May they begin making an experience no matter what year you usually go. This year, with this weather, it's pretty obvious you should expect to encounter some. But hey, it will still be better than going in mid-June, so look on the bright side.
