Im a little more northeast of him but can be at the trenches within a hour. The only thing about erie is the weather changes on a dime. You could be out on a flat calm day and in 15 mins it could kick up and you could be in 4-6 footers. Your boat will handle it but it will be a slow and wet ride back. Ive seen guys perching on erie in 12 john boats with 9.9's. I think their crazy but they do it. Like stated above, watch the weather.
Good luck.
