Bets on weather.

[starweld20]

Anyone putting any bets in on the weather for sat and sun yet? The over under on 3 footers is getting me worried on making the trip

for lake o 3 to 4 footers is the norm.calling for winds 15 to 20 this weekend and it will probably get rough but it doesn't mean you won't be able to fish in the early morning.you can always drive east and fish Irondequoit or Sodus bay

[starweld20]

They still got a good bite going for Browns in Sodus bay?

You could also go west and launch at Fort Niagara and fish the river. Last I heard theyre still getting some steelhead and lakers in there.

I guess as long as the waves are rollers id be fine. Never had my boat on lake o just Erie and 4 footers there are normally rather violent in a aluminum boat

the brown bite in the bays should still be going.excellent bass and pike fishing too.i fish an aluminum lund boat and you're right about 4's being uncomfortable. i can't do it when i'm hung over

Looks like you might have a window first thing Saturday am. Other than that the weekend is screwed

[starweld20]

We will have all day Friday too. Fingers crossed anyhow. What time do the bait shops open up that way. We're going out of wilson first thing Friday morning and I need to pickup a couple things

I think Slippery Sinker opens around 6 but I havent been there in a while.

[starweld20]

Yeah Shawn my friend has an 18 foot Starcraft and 4's on Erie were somewhat obnoxious in my opinion as far as comfortability. I have a 20 foot starweld. It did really well the first outing. But this will only be its second journey ever

If your planning on getting fishing time in Saturday and Sunday the last place I would go would be Ontario. Waves 3ft building to 6 and a cold front. No Good

[starweld20]

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of. I'll have all day Friday tho. If we have to pack it in sat so be it.

One thing to remember too is that those wave height predictions are averages and there may be waves twice the size predicted.

[starweld20]

It's always a crap shoot really just like Erie. I was just looking to gauge what everyone's thoughts were on sat mostly. That's for the help

Early Am should be good but after 10 or 11 forget about it.

I have a couple sites that I use and I don't think anyone on the US side will be fishing Sat. past noon and no fishing on Sun. If you go out of Toronto you might be alright.

[starweld20]

thanks chas it seems to be looking that way for sat and Sunday. Maybe I'll get a nice birthday present sat and this weather will change for the best.

Here are the sites, the NOAA Graphical can sometimes be hit or miss but the 2nd one is usually pretty good long as you click in the middle of the lake in front of your port.

10-20 mph west wind on Friday

[overthelimit]

Maybe a small window of opportunity Saturday morning. That's my only hope.

[mikebarb86]

Anyone know if the trout and salmon bite turns off during a cold front I want to go out fishing Saturday morning since it's the only day I have off.
