East Wind blues

[BP Swing]

Can anyone tell me what happens to the water column on an east wind? Does it blow the warm water out or is there a general rule of thumb what happens on the south shore of Lake O? Jeez Friday the lakers were all over 75 feet and after 2 days of east wind it was the barren sea so was wondering what happened? Thanks

 

Also how deep has anyone caught Lakers on the bottom max? Just wondering how deep these things go.

Well at least for today with yesterdays east wind the water went from 64 to 51 near shore. So now wondering if the southerlys will push that water back out. Wish I could figure this lake out what a PITA.

You can still have good catches during and after an east wind. However, the effects of an east wind on Lake Ontario are far to complex to explain in a single post on here. I would urge you, and anyone else interested, to attend the LOTSA Salmon School next January. We will be discussing that very subject, and many others, in depth.
