I hear ya Craig. It has been an odd year so far with all the wind and cold temps. It's gotta warm up soon so we can start working on the lead the North Team has amassed. Not to worry, when our time comes we will start filling up the slots for the South. I have been out a couple of times and caught a couple of 26-7 inchers I could have posted but did not because I released them expecting a 30 incher on the next cast.
Part of the problem is that too many of us southern catters have been or will be relegated to "injured reserve" status. Great to have Jim back at full strength but with you convalescing, Mooseman's surgeries, and Lance scheduled for neck surgery it is hard to field (lake?) a full team. I'm scheduled for some surgery next Monday that will take me out of action just as the catching is starting to heat up. When we are at full strength we, the South, will hit 'em hard with a series of 30+ers and the South will rise again to it's rightful place.
It ain't over yet and the best really is yet to come.
