Joe, I feel your pain (literally...) as I have not been able to get out this year with the exception of a couple of trips on my pontoon boat. As of now I can't even get out in the pontoon, but have high hopes for about a month from now. Stillwaters are now my target and I have been gearing all of my tying towards mastering stillwater presentations, and can't wait for the coming day when I can make my first foray to my favorite new stillwater pond. Good to see you've found an alternate and gratifying alternative that will help scratch the itch. Good luck!

Kelly.
