They were calling for southwest winds 10 to 15 knots and building. When we got out there, it was straight west wind about 20 to 25 knots. That Lake was very sporty. We didn’t spend a lot of time out there. I heard it laid down later in the day instead of building like they said.

We had 3-5’s rolling through in 125 FOW.

The common adage to double what they say is pretty good. If they say 1 to 3 feet plan on 2 to 6. The only time you can be reasonably sure of a calm lake is if they say 1 foot or less, and that means winds of less than about 7 or 8 knots generally. 2 feet or less you will probably have 4 footers which is usually fishable depending on the boat, but will be a challenge setting lines.
