Re: 21.91 to Win the Delta

Changes to the delta. I believe the primrose infestation is wrecking the delta. When I first started fishing the delta, tourneys were won with 15-18 pounds. Then it got to high 20's and 20 to get a check. Seems were getting back to where it was 49 years ago. Too much bank cover being lost.
