If the weather report is correct - it should be warm enough!
Let us know how you do!

Might as well go if you're not doing anything. Did you find the bunker you were looking for? If not you can hit the B&T shop in Fairton, it's kinda close to where you're headed.

According to the water temps, they should be moving in most of the bays by now.

Talked to my friend who runs a boat out of Fortesque. He verified that they started catching keepers on Tuesday, not alot, around a dozen or so, but dark and meaty. It looks like it game time. (Especially good to go before the worst of the bugs emerge.)
