Yes sir. The local weather buoy recorded 10.46' big wave with 7.5' significant wave.  6 second between dominate waves. Wind at 33.8 mph gusting to 45.4 mph. 

I sat home because of the wind today, too.  It's supposed to lay down a little tomorrow, then be fairly calm Sunday.  I hope so... I need to fish!  :-)

 

Tight lines,

That photo is what bothers me on taking a small trip to erie, my local weather saysthere's showers in the vicinity although it's been pouring all day.

I couldnt drive though that, if I tried my wife would kill me

That's what the southwest end of Lake Michigan has looked like the last couple days. Going to take a few days for the mud to settle

How about a week? Gale force winds tonight & tomorrow. Once it stops blowing the water will take many days to clear.

I wouldn't.

Seems like that's pushing Joaquin out from the coast

Had a charter set-up for last Wed. the 30th on Erie but cancelled, Charter Capt. called tues. and warned us of 30 to 40 mph winds. It was a real buzzkill but..."Live to fish another day" and it saved us a 2 1/2 hr. drive 

Any day out is a good day!

Unless you go over because the waves are too big...

Sometimes you just need to stay home on big water like this.

Surfs up!   :eyebrows:

 

Hahaha that is brutal!

The wind is your friend, right?  It looks like a spinnerbait day.  LOL

When it's like that it's not unless you want to have a rough time and maybe end up in the drink. Any time it's white capping like that is dangerous. If weather calls for 3-5' waves like it does often then stay home.

That was an attempt at humor.  I thought the "LOL" would make it obvious.   :)

Is that a strong northwest?

Maybe you could charter a boat from the Coast Guard.
