Re: Haven't seen a week like this in a long time....

Didn't think I had to spell it out, wind speed, and wave height, meaning calm water no waves this week, which in turn means great hunting in the water.....

Then again do they have beaches in Ohio??? LOL

Re: Haven't seen a week like this in a long time....

those are wave heights and time between swells, usually from some NOA weather bouy in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM, for you landlocked guys). The bouys also give temperature of air and water, wind speed and direction. I understand that some of the bouys are gonna be pulled out because we don't have the dinero to keep them maintained. If they aren't pulled, they'll be allowed to sit there with no one gathering information. Personally, just me myself and I, would rather pay a bit more in taxes to keep things like this going. Oh well. ::)

???...We sure do up along lake Erie but we never worry about that stuff we do not have low or high tides as big as the Great Lakes are we have no tides and the water is always pretty cold......................

It is always subject to local weather changes, but over all I have found the surf forecast to be very accurate off of Magicseaweed.com..........

Re: Haven't seen a week like this in a long time....

I run into that problem, calm sea and deep targets or rough sea and uncovered targets hard to get to without being thrashed.

I think I would be out there hunting anyway...you never never know and someone could of just lost it!

Yo Bill,
Which website you use for the forecast, was wondering as some sites I have used have been way off the mark on the surf!
