As far as I am concerned the link at the bottom of this post is the most accurate one available for the western basin. Is it right 100% of the time, no, absolutly not but it is accurate most probably 90% of the time. It is most accurate for no futher out than 2 days, so if you are getting a favorable forcast for Saturday today then that can change considerably before that so keep checking the site as it is constantly getting updated. If I am going on Saturday I will look on thursday evening to make the call of go or no go then. If it looks good for Saturaday then I will let those who may be going with me know so they can make their plans accordingly. More than 2 days out is a crap shoot at best.

Being in my mid 60's has reduced the size of the waves that I am willing to brave to go fishing, especially trolling, anchoring for perch I will tolerate larger waves. Cut off for going trolling for me is @ 15MPH from the NE and 18 to 20 from the Southerly directions depending how far offshore I would have to go to get to the fish. It just isn't any fun trying to stand with the waves above 3 ft.
