This piece in Field & Stream describes the habits of Tricorythodes mayflies and how to contend with the challenges they present: "The insects are very small--generally from 3 to 7 millimeters long--but so abundant in some areas that their morning mating swarms can look like a dense, smoky haze over the water."
