So......let's just put this in perspective. There is a club in the state that typically brings in 5 to 8 times the amount of teams that the current Cataract Slab Masters does. The irony is that there have been a few teams that have fished with CSM and one team fishes CSM as much as ISM. When these teams show up, they mop the floor with the rest of you. You are so right.....self pity is very unbecoming.
