Island/Huron area forecast
Planning on making my first erie trip next week coming from WI, as far as wind goes looking at the forcast it looks like w-sw for the most part. What makes it unfishable? Anything over 15mph ect?
Also anyone with any lodging info is appreciated.....late in game but looking for more of a house cottage rental!

Hello W. 21
"What makes it unfishable"....depends on where you're putting in, what you're putting in and then, where you're heading. Yes the winds and their speeds play a role along with their direction(s) and wave producing abilities. Watch what the latest weather predictions offer....get at least 3 or 4 reports/updates from different sources. Other effects: barometer, clouds, boat noise. Know your boat. Lake Erie offers a wide variety of changes that can happen in a matter of minutes.
As for wind speeds creating rough seas it really depends on velocity and direction. If they're out of the Northeast hitting into Sandusky, P.C. Huron, etc. @ 15 K., waves will obviously be higher as compared to winds out of the Southwest. Can you find calmer waters in the protection of one of the Islands? Sure. Can your boat make it back? Check the isobars.
Are you trolling, drifting, anchoring? "Unfishable"? Bait, Presentation, Trolling/Drift Speed? Clarity? Fish finder? Are you here for the Walleye only? If the Eye's are scarce, think about Yellow Perch. Good eatin' too.
Let us know what happens.

look at all the wind forcast for this area and rain systems coming and what the water temps are doing... about 36-37 now..warmer water= more bites...windsurf the next 5 days... I'm not going and I have a 20 ft. boat... still kinda early...couple 3 more weeks it will be better...but from now till then get a nice warm streak anytime and the fish will go
