Jeez, if that's "vague", I'd love to see what you consider "specific".
:-)


That's easy. We're talking about fly fishermen. Any time they don't
specify _exactly_ which fly to use or which pattern to tie the
information is considered vague.


You say that like it's a bad thing. :-)


LOL, not at all, and I've spent enough time throwing around little bits
of feathers to appreciate this facet of the culture; although I sometimes
suspect that a fly fisherman would consider a pie recipe vague unless it
included specific information on fly tying.

Hopefully someone has more, equally vague, information for the OP--even
though this has traditionally been the sort of information that one only
gave to fishing buddies after swearing them to secrecy with a blood oath.
Getting on the ground and asking around will probably result in all sorts of
information--some of it probably even useful. Wearing signs of membership in
the fraternity, such as a properly adorned hat or vest, or carrying a fly
rod in a fraternity sanctioned case could result in members of the
illuminati stepping forward at their destination with the desired
information.
