.. Isn't Greensboro pretty close
to Wilson? Is it that much nicer? We were hoping for Mt. Airy
(Mayberry?) but never been Thanks for the info! Any specific
streams/lakes you like in NC?

jesus christ. you begin to test my patience. look at a ****ing map!
greensboro is, culturally , a thousand miles from wilson. greensboro, and
guilford county, voted for kerry. do you begin to understand? wilson
probably went red at about a 70% ratio, and about 70% of the population is
black.

if you are very wealthy, and don't give a **** about talking to people
about anything other than their money, their ancestors, or their clothes,
then by all means, move to wilson.

awh

What the ...??? How is a map gonna show me "cultural" differences.
Yikes! I hope y'all aren't gonna be in my neighborhood. Actually I was
only hoping to talk to folks about fly fishing, antiques and the future.

Okay, I have been top posting as I prefer to read that way. I'll bottom
post here, since it pleases most.

Looks like I better come vacation there in NC and see what is what.

There is no aquatic insect, surface or sub-surface that looks
like a yellow humpy, there is no terrestrial or even extra-
terrestrial that looks like a yellow humpy ! So why do they
work ? Woudn't you like to just once be able to do a Vulcan
mind meld with a trout and ask him "What in the hell were you
THINKING ?"


Second question: "Why in hell would you take a Royal Coachman in all its
variants, or a *big* Red Devel Bug?"

The Best thing about a humpy, it FLOATS.

In picking through all my flies to select the ones I want to
carry in my vest that day I came across a yellow humpy that
must have been among the first I ever tied. The proportions
were all wrong, the hackle was at least two sizes too big
and poorly tied to boot. So naturally I tossed it in the box.
