WIND

[Bender]

Just got back from a long and brutal trip up north. NW winds at whipping down 6 miles of Grand Lake with gusts up to 35 made 4 footers on Saturday morning, then it got worse! (but I got off the water then) We had two boats sink (one did twice) and another lost the TM and big motor quit too. I'm ready for as many dead calm days as possible.

I was on the grand river saturday. Those were the largest whitecaps I have seen or atleast been on, on that river. Got into the T-cut and got a few.

Hope the boat that sunk was not a Blue Skeeter.  I am with you about a calm day.  maybe this weekend.

I was on St. Clair yesterday and the winds were gusty but coming off shore as I was on the Mile Roads.  It got worse the further I drifted out.  The bite was pretty good.  Caught about 37 or so.  I like calm seas too, however wind is good for the smallie bite.

No, not that one, but he had a couple issues. A 17' Lowe and a small glass bass boat. Both were near shore and able to be saved from becoming permanent structure since it wasn't too deep.

might as well snow.  the weatherman must not like us.   read about your adventure on the bay.  gave me flashbacks of an adventure on St-clair and Erie with FLW pros.  glad you boys made it back safe.

Last couple of years have been windy.  Water got stirred up because of the wind on St. Clair on Sunday.  Friday and Saturday the water was gin clear.  Sunday it was starting to get a bit dingy but was clear enough to see.  Needed rattles in the baits so the fish could find them better.
