interesting bill...thanks. reports are that the weather has been too
warm for the albies to turn on yet, so it'll probably be late november
before it really kicks up. sorry you missed the run, as it's been
getting a lot of attention by writers and flyfishers the last few years.

IJ says----yes it is still warm--I toured the golf course on my bike at 6am
this morning and it was 73 degrees.
Acually Bill you did not miss much by failing to find the albies. Spent a
few days out of Beufort last year and rode around in a boat and reeled in
fish. No skill involved- just ride around in big waves- find a pod of
tuna- toss your fly --listen to the reel humm and reel in a fish.
Let it go and toss your fly back into the fish pod.
However the evening parties and the folks involved sounded like fun.
Jeff- travelocity lists a round trip flight to Montana for 248$ this
morning-----almost begin packing until I looked at the weather map.
