Now that's a great pattern Hans, that would probably work nicely here in some of local ponds and small lakes. Gotta try that one for next weekend's outing.

That might come in handy in the mid-Atlantic states this year. We're expecting a brood of 17 year cicadas.

Hans - Fabulous design. I think this pattern would make a nice pleasant PLOP sound, when it hits the water, just like a plump cicada.
