Winds and this weekend's outlook


Recommended Posts

So I'm looking at the forecast for this weekend ( I know it's early but trying to plan).  It's looking like Saturday will be winds from the west with 2 footers, Sunday will be south southeast with 1 foot or less.  Which should I be fishing?  Small boat so the less waves the better but is west wind better for fishing?

The wind speed and direction might be secondary to the possibility of T storms on Sunday and Monday. It may depend on where you are fishing if the wind will be from the west there could be a big difference the further east you fish and if the wind picks up from the NW it can be pretty rough along the south shore.. Also sometimes it is wise to launch near a bay you can fish as a "Plan B" where you can be protected and possibly wait out the higher winds. Sodus Bay is a good example and this time of year a variety of fish are in the bay.
