He is laying low due to the river. You can sign up at the FLW up until Friday 600PM, the meeting time. I will let him know though.
Other than the IWT, was there ever a tournament cancelled? MWC wasnt last year. Maybe thats the benchmark. If the MWC can go, than the FLW will go.
It has been relatively clear for the last few weeks. Certainly fishable at 18 feet or more. Years ago, it would hit 16 and thats it. The river would be shot.
The DesPlaines up north is fast, muddy and HUGE. It should be down there by Friday.
