now i've heard it all. may 1, 2003 was rough?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? it was one of, if not the flattest day of the season last year (a year which had very little rough water).

i've looked at the weather data for may, and there is little statistical difference between the beginning and end of the month. good weather and bad weather happen regardless of the time of month. trying to craft seasons based on good weather is silly.

but thanks for bringing up last may 1. a flat,calm day and big halibut attacking pipe jigs. too bad it will probably never happen in washington state again.
