How are the bugs?

[sureshot612]

We just got back on Sun. and were there for 12 days the bugs were bad for the first 2 days and then with the cooler temps it was bare able we had a good week and but on warmer days it got bad. But there were times were you walked out the door and you inhaled bugs. just hope for cool weather and wind ……Just a fun fact did you know a mosquito can't land in the wind ….not a joke its true..good luck and tight lines . We also had a good moon faze and we did well

We are bringing one of those large mesh gazebos to our campsite this year. Hopefully that will help. It's usually not so bad when you are out on the water, so more reason to get out fishing. Would be nice to have a smaller mesh gazebo to put over the toilet. There are few things worse than getting swarmed while you're dropping a deuce. Your skin is unavoidably exposed, and in some sensitive areas!

I bet a thermacell inside one of those gazebos would do a nice job. I've had the pit toilet torture test... not cool. Whatever you do, there is no such thing as overkill for the bugs you'll likely encounter. When I was up a week ago, that snow and cold knocked the bugs, including the ticks, completely out. The week before that, my buddy in Ironwood said they were lifting him off the ground.

So I was up working on my shack for a couple days, the ticks are bad, the mosquitoes are not a factor yet, but there are all sorts of big flies ramping up. Good news, there were tons of dragonflies.
