I've got a club T at Baldwin this Sat. so I hope the bite continues. Baldwin is very rough with a slight breeze so I hope for a calm day.
Good luck at Greenville I have never fished it.

The Sun. tourney is at Governor Bond. Local club, we average 15-19 boats or so on Sundays. We fish Wednesday nights too, starting Apr.4. Not much money involved, but it's a good time. And, except for the jet-skis, I kinda like the lake.

I heard that! It costs me $50 a year, and when/ if I ever re-power my boat, it goes to $100. Pretty sad to have to pay to fish your own damn water...
