Over thinking it
This morning is beautiful
Who cares about a little rain
Good couple hours of fishing if you launched just before sun rise

So here is my prediction.……
weather network says as of friday at 5:34pm.
Sunny with 14klm/hr wind. to me = max wind around noon 14knts. Gusting up to 23knts.
Therefore we may see sustained winds in the afternoon of 23knts. this will occur when the winds build in the early afternoon.
So my plan is to be on the water early. (Light wind).
Making sure im getting closer to shore as the day progresses. Add to that a north wind you will want to be close to shore. If it does indeed hit 23kts.
I will repost tomorrow Sat at 5:30pm. After i have checked my two go to sites.

Not overthinking.i drive from 3 hours away and this is how i do it. I don't have the option of looking out the window to plan my trip.
With that in mind. Remeber that this conversation was started on a better way to plan a trip to lake Erie. For those of us that make the hike.

There is one other option. Old tymer prediction. Hook boat to truck. Drive to lake if too rough go home and have a beer.
100% results EVERY time.

on my way to Nanticoke I start scanning for the windmills,, Im already almost there by the time I can tell if they are spinning too fast, but on more than one occasions they were fast enough to turn around before making the full trip.
Wish there was a way to look up real time wind speed and direction on them from home.

Yah keeps changing
I’m planning to go out before sunrise get my limit early come back before the winds pick up hopefully
Today wasn’t as windy as they were calling for still windy but not as bad.
Tomorrow’s forecast keeps changing but one thing that hasn’t changed is it dies over night so first light fishing should still be good
