Hey guys- I am sitting at the ramp at Lake Waco waiting for the lightning to stop at my Jr.Bass tourney.  I drive all the way to Waco after getting up at 4:00 to go to my second Jr.Bassmaster tourney this weekend and now the lightning won't stop. We can fish through rain, that doesn't bother me, it is the part about holding a 7' piece of graphite in your hand that does. It has been ten minutes now since the last one so maybe we can go soon... No, there is not really a point to this post, I just wanted to let y'all know how much it sucks.

Looking at the radar, it may be a little while before you get out. Be safe and good luck.

Sorry to hear that. Does look like the rain will take a while to clear the Waco area.

smart move. i enjoy fishing in a spring shower, but thunderstorms are not to be messed with. you have many more weekends to make this one up.

Good call. Better safe than sorry. I don't want to fish another benefit tournament for a while!
