That SUCKS.
But of course you're spot on about the tourney money. A few hundred bucks isn't a big deal; it's more important that Mike not worry about such a trivial thing.
On a side note, despite the ferocious winds yesterday we went out for about 6 hours. Found a few fish, but not in any of the "usual" spots and definitely not tourney winners.....lol.
Weather is looking great for Saturday as of this morning.
Best wishes to Mike for an easy and 100% recovery.
