I cannot do refunds now everything is all set up prizes are in envelopes windfinder says less than a ft stanley bouy its not bad guys am sorry but its too late to back out foods ordered n paid for
 
dam even if storms come at 10am
3hours more than enough time to catch a fish
 
Posted Sunday as a rain day........Sunday looks way better.

Rain and heavy chop Saturday. Is Sunday not a option being it is supposed to be a way better day??
 
I don't put much faith in what Env Can or TWN say when it comes to deciding whether to go fishin or not because what they say is mostly for London, and what it does in London is almost never what it's doing at the lake. Of the sites I look at, the 3 I trust the most all say something different, but only 1 of them is calling for rain or storms of any kind tomorrow, so even though I'm not in the derby, I'm not changing my plans and I'll be on the pier in the morning around 8:30. (I'd be there when I normally go to see everyone off if I didn't have to wait for my son to get a day license since he didn't bother to renew his annual license or OC this year) I should be there still when people start coming back in and might even take a break from fishin to make an appearance at the weigh in location.
 
This is why alot of events dont happen people already saying why its not postphoned am trying to make everyone happy catch a big fish n come in no one says you have top fish till anytime remember only one fish counts
 
CTV news just said DON'T cancel your plans, the highest probability of rain/storms isn't until after 2pm tomorrow and they're going to come and go quickly if/when they happen, but again that's the London forecast, and what it does here in London experience tells me is not necessarily what its doing at the lake.

I’m not a rough weather kind of guy, but I understand it’s all set in place and I will try in the morning if too rough so be it, I’ll come back and socialize with the guys.
and I’m staying in a motel tonight.
So thank you for organizing this and the prizes, is what it is can’t control the weather
 
Slancy hates it when it’s rough
Plan is to do a loop catch a fish or two and come back
If it’s nice I troll around until 10
