Wierd open-carry experience

Minor Detail, Mayflies DO NOT have any mouth parts, mouths, or stingers, so whatever was "biting" the OP it wasn't mayflies. BTW, check Wikipedia if you wish to confirm this.

As for open carry, it's common enough in the Metro Detroit area that most don't even take notice. Probably because there is a large percentage of the population in this area with CPL's and a concealed firearm in their pocket or tucked into an IWB holster. One person I did take notice of was carrying two Uberti SAA revolvers in a "gunslingers" rig without any leg ties. Want to see something rather hilarious you should watch someone walking along with his firearms flapping in their holsters like a wounded goose.

I see open carriers on a regular basis. Not every day, but regularly. I have yet to see anyone run from one or appear to be frightened by them.

Yes, but you're in Texas, he was in Michigan! Just a wee bit of a difference...

If you must open carry please don't walk around with your $3000 Nighthawk custom in a $6.00 Uncle Mike's nylon holster.

I carry my Hipoint in a $900 crocodile ElPaso Saddlery holster/belt combo. I won't trust my life to anything but the best!

I guess the moral of this story is........

Don't open carry, while half naked.......

No open carry in Illinois ..

Just last week took the wife's jeep to the dealer because the water pump was going out on it and mine in for an oil change and lube ..
Got out of my Jeep Wrangler and then looked back into it to see the mileage and Rick the guy behind the counter had came around .. he laid his hand on my shoulder and in a quiet voice asked me "Are you going to shoot me?" I immediately realized why .. my shirt had road up over the butt of my Beretta .. I laughed and so No and nothing else was said

Seeing a gun doesn't freak out every one ..

Those must be really stupid flies to attack someone they can see is carrying.
