GS's trip south has me thinking... He mentions how the conditions were cold temp wise (ambient and water?) and that there is a huge run-off from all of the rains. Historically, if I remember correctly, this causes poor spawning conditions in the Chessapeke Bay tributaries with the resulting poor YOY indices. High freshwater content and colder than average water temps severely impacting the spring spawn... Any coments?

Thanks,

John
