Man Sunil, you should see the Texas summers in remote areas, the average man will die from heatstroke ! \:\) I can just sit and watch my waterline drop as I fish. Luckily we have decent weather from Fall to Spring, 3 out of 4 aint bad. (lol, Texas jargon) The fish do grow a lot faster in the South, one small advantage. Land is very pricey around all the major cities, I'm lucky to have what I have, and a 2+ hour drive is better than "wishin I had something". Hard to find good hunting any closer too...that's just as fun when the fish aren't biting !
