yea.. but the bass are WAY early.... we never see 30lb in the Mac until june..Schoolies arrive the first week in may.. we've had them a month now..on the other hand.. I've never been a big believer in water temps effecting Migrations to a large degree... creatures tend to migrate related to the length of the day ...IMHO.. the early start, is more directly related to the distance the fish have had to travel... the warm fall kept a big slug of fish north of the traditional wintering grounds...I'll be curious to see if the Hudson has a banner spawn this year...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
