Yes that a Fish fly and a Mayfly are the same thing although the term Mayfly includes many different but similar bugs. We get swarms of them around here and they will take the snow plow trucks to clear them off the bridges.
One time that for some reason sticks in my memory is when I was on a bridge in southern MN watching the Mayfly's. One just tipped over in mid flight and spun down into the water. I watched it as far as I could to see if a trout got it. No.
Until then I had not spent much time thinking about bugs dying in nature.

The "Love Bugs" down south are so thick at times they will clog your radiator. We put screens over the grill to keep them out.

Your right i think. They call them either fish flies or some call them june bugs round here because they come in June. They only last a few weeks then they are gone and the birds get fat but those couple of weeks are terrible.
The kids and folks that were bought up here think nothing of them but I never saw one before moving here and was truly shocked and appalled.
When we get a big spider in the house, my wife and i fight over who will get rid of it.
She says it's a mans job and i try to make her understand that when it comes to creepy crawlies she better go find herself a real man cos i aint it.- - Steve

Thanked: 56Love bugs don't smell, it is just two bugs that love each other very much and fly around stuck together. But there can be tons of them. I don't think they are rekated to may flies at all.
Of course, that said, our June bugs are uncoordinated flying beetles. Like a flying roomba just bouncing off something to change direction. So, maybe he was talking about a different love bug, too. But the radiator thing fits.If you're wondering I'm probably being sarcastic.

Love bugs fly while deep in coitus.
