Yesterday Joe Humphreys was honored by the the Spring Creek Chapter of Trout Unlimited and the ClearWater Conservancy with their Spring Creek Heritage Award, fitting recognition for a life spent teaching people of all ages how to fly fish. Among his students: actor Liam Neeson and former president Jimmy Carter. "'He said learning to nymph fish was like, at the time, dealing with Congress. ... It was difficult,' said Humphreys, who fished with Carter in Spruce Creek." Ed Mahon in the Centre Daily Times.
