I think a look at reports from the past couple weeks will bear that out.. After 10-12 fluke trips on various PBs and charters for me so far this year, I'd call my results slightly below average.. 1 skunk.. a couple limits, but mostly at least a keeper or 2.. last week's trip was best so far, and I'm betting this week will be even better
