what was the air temp?
it is hard to say because there is no local temp. but it is mostly mid 40- 49
last sunday it was sleeting on and off for 20 minutes that was 1pm
before that it was blowing 30-50mph(a little too much for my 4.2) and after i was maxed on my 4.2 but very good
The water temp. is very cold mid 40s.
yeterday the temps were in the low 40s
photos of me taken by after dark mark while he swims in the water at Doug's this past September. It was a big day i was on a 4.2 ADM was on a 3.7
