Looks like it's going to be a tough one to Water temp of 15Degrees, 90% chance of heavy rain and 25-35Mph winds. On top of all that he as had a shoulder injury for the last week or two. We strapped it up yesterday and hes went for a practice swim at Ellerton Lake, and just for authenticity it rained. So come on guys if this isn't worth a Bob or two what is. Thanks |
