    Skyys the Limit:
    Sunday looks like a really good day so far! If you go out tomorrow be sure that you will have enough water to return to your departure spot as a west wind in the mid 20 mphs will lower the water at almost all of the marinas on the western end of the lake. Be careful out there as no fish is worth the loss of your boat and especially your life.

    captain polish:
    Weather dot com is calling for Friday East winds at 10mph, Saturday NE at 8 mph and Sunday south at 10 mph.

    But wind surf is telling a different story, here's the link.

    Wakina,

    I agree with you, I have 5' of water under the boat in the channel that I dock @, but I will not make a mistake in going out if i'm not sure of my return, I appreciate your advise, always being safe first for me & my crew is my goal, I'll play it by ear! thanks again for your input!

    If I would go out tomorrow and that wind would set in I would not be able to get back in the river as the channel was only 2 ft deep last sunday with that north wind blowing about 10 knots. So with a high west or northeast wind I am hit, all I can do is drink beer. I was not being critical of you and only wanted to give you a heads up just in case you have never left port with a high west wind.
