Only 4 or 5 trucks at Hopewell this morning and these guys were actually well away from the road hunting with their dogs not waiting for the friggin truck.
Good to hear considering I hear so many horror stories about Hopewell. I used to see people sitting around waiting for the truck at Buffalo Lake before they started the random releases, but things have been very smooth at Daysland and Buffalo Lake, over the past few years. ACA has been doing a good job with the releases, but yes, it sometimes it appears that certain people have inside information as to the release schedule, but it is sometimes as simple as one person living by the site seeing the truck driving by, and calling their friends.
