    Default Illinois weather sucks


    Was supposed to fish a local tournament Saturday. Just got notified that it has been re-scheduled due to weather. Forecast says around 19 at takeoff time. Now happening May 19. Think it will be warm(ish) by then?

    Yep. I this state you don't have to feel bad about not knowing what you're doing. Neither does mother nature or our governors.

    Heidecke can get ugly in some of the wind we have had lately.

    Been out at least 4 times in the boat already this year. Some days were better than others. Next trip out includes tent camping, three weeks, can't wait. Wouldn't be the first time I camped in snow or rain, even camped in a tornado once.
    We live in Illinois, waiting on the perfect day could take a life time, go, go now!!!!

    Not well. Never got boat off the trailer. Blew the switch box in the Merc leaving no spark to the plugs. I can't seem to catch a break. New part will be here Friday. MAY get to go Sunday (fingers crossed).

    if it doesn't snow!
    Wow that stinks. We have all been there, a stretch of bad luck. Eventually it all comes together and things work out.
