Its that time of year again when us river anglers start leaping about in the garden like demented martial arts students looking for our bait.

Quite fitting then that Kwai Chang Caine was named after this little critter..

If they're "flattened" laterally/sideways/bream-style they're grasshoppers, or locusts if you've been shopping online.
If they're flattened dorso-ventrally/top-to-bottom/skate-style, they're crickets.
Flattened by an artiste with a metal baseball bat? Probably a critic.

Fish'em live...small strong barbed or crushed barb hook through the abdomen, light floating braid, let the current and your skill do the searching. The takes are legendary!!
