Can you say upwelling?

This should screw things up for a couple of days! Check out the link below.

Brian,

It was cloudy last night, so I don't think the satellite imagery could obtain the temps correctly.

We did have the NE since Sunday Afternoon, so I'm sure temps are up and an upwelling has begun, but those temps cannot be real.

Just my two cents...

One of the guys from my marina was out yesterday morning and the 39 degree water was 45' down. I hope it is wrong.

Read todays attheoak.com report. 43 degrees on the surface in 100 fow. thats not good.

Ugh...

Sorry if this is a dumb question but why are the low temps so bad for fishing?

[GAMBLER]

Usually upwelling spreads the fish out because there prefered water temp is screwed up. Upwelling also usually means bad currents. The temp off (50degrees) of Sandy creek 3 days ago was down 105'. Today it is 43 degrees on the surface. At this time of the year, find bait and the fish should still be there.

A buddy of mine had a charter today and said that at 500fow temp was down 50' and in 250fow it was 54 degrees on top and 40 degrees 25' down. We'll be out there Thursday this week.

Whenever the coastwatch site shows shades of gray or black areas, check this site out. (This satellite seems to penetrate clouds better.)
