Eyes on the lake August 2nd

[Puddle Jumper]

Any one able to give me a report of lake conditions

Buoy says 1.6 so 3 ' and old sailflow site I use says wind should drop after lunch.

I am hopefull ( wishfull) to get out tonight ??

As I am holidays this week and not sure if weeks forecast will allow me to get out ??

my fingers are crossed for the evening shift tonight
Rest of the week looks like it won’t happen..
maybe Saturday

I originally planned on Burwell today, but later than normal.

Unfortunately conditions changed for the worse and those in another boat decided not to travel down and then after a call, I made the same decision.

To me, Friday looks like a good possibility, but today is only Tuesday and we all know how quickly things go South.

If Stanley doesn’t lay down I’ll likely launch from Glasgow this afternoon

This afternoon -- from windy : W 9kts, with a .3m wave -- 2 second period between peaks. Choppy but fishable for 16 foot boats or larger. Glasgow or Stanley for smaller waves.

The late afternoon looks not too bad today for a evening of fishing. But,I will wait it out instead for now today for some Lake Erie fishing.Here’s hoping for better weather conditions through this week,especially for lighter winds!! lol

That sounds promising @BayRunner16 Be Safe & Tight Lines if you do decide to go out on Lake Erie fishing today.

It’s nice to be close to Lake Erie for you @Derkd9 to have two boat ramp’s close to your home. Tight lines and Fish ON!! if you do get out fishing late this afternoon.

@Red Hering It's a pass for us today. But if I lived closer - I'd be fishing the walleye chop this evening.

Harbour cam at Glasgow right now looks like glass out on the lake.

It's an offshore wind guys. Don't be fooled. Shoreline cameras don't tell the full story.

 

[Trevor M]

It's a NW wind at 15-17km/hr with gusts in the high 20's. I could be sitting on the pier right now and I wouldn't be overly concerned about the wave action, but that's sitting on the pier. Further out in the lake it's bound to be a lil bumpier.

But, I'm not and I'm not sure if I will be or not. I haven't been informed what, if anything, we're going to be doing today since my wife, who is on vacation this week, hasn't decided yet, or she has, but just hasn't told me yet . Waiting to hear those magic words I may or may not hear today .

As of right now I’ll be at Glasgow tonight!

 

[Puddle Jumper]

Buoy has been dropping every hour
And forecast for 5 -8 pm looks good

I think we will be going to Bruce or burwell
Up to the Captain though

 

[hvyhaul]

If you go, hope you do well and safely.

I'm waiting until Friday.

I’m still planning port Stanley

Don’t blame you, further trek on the water but closer drive for you. As long as the weather man doesn’t screw up we should all be yelling fish on in a couple hours

Windy and wind finder are actually the same for once so there is hope!

 

[Puddle Jumper]

Heading to Port Bruce now

 

[Kdog]

I am leaving for port Bruce shortly
