You mentioned there were not many moths when testing your new setup, yet seems to me you got quite a decent result? Are you getting greedy ;) Posted 6 years ago

  Lol, funny you say that because as I was going through and posting them, I realized that I had a lot more than I initially realized! I think it felt like less because there were fewer caddisflies - usually there are 100's each night at the light. Last night, there were maybe 50. Plus, I may be a bit greedy...
