Here is a link to Mike’s Facebook group where he is posting. It would be great if he returned because he hasn’t updated as frequently as he did on here. The content Bob shared is Mike’s most recent weather post from July 23.
The fisherman seemed deliberate and conclusive when he stated that he was done with DR1. Massive loss of expertise. Hopefully he posts on his FB site this season.
