Question about wave action on inland lake.

The other morning I took it out, and the overall wave action appeared to be different than usual. It was a flat calm day, except when a passing boat produced some waves. Most of the time the waves seem to be sort of peaked and a bit sharp, but on this morning they were more rounded and flatter. The first boat I noticed it from, I thought it might be simply due to the shape of the boat itself. But after a while I noticed it was true of all of them...which was cool with me because it meant I could go faster without getting tossed in the air too much. It still made me wonder *why* though. Could it have something to do with what creates high and low tides, and/or why sometimes when you dig a hole you seem to have more dirt than you took out and sometimes you seem to have less? If so, is there a way to predict when waves will tend to be sharper and when they will tend to be flatter, like people can predict high and low tides? I fish Lanier, where on the lake are you? At Holiday Marina. I don't fish, but if you'd want to hook up and go for a boat ride--houseboat, runabout, and/or paddle around in a kayak --let me know. So far I haven't met anyone from a news group, and that would be cool for me. I'm at R17. Give me a call at 678-714-5764, or an email at sometime if you want. If you send an email be sure to mention something about Lanier or the like so I know it's not spam, 'cause I get about a hundred spams a day. Cool, I'll do it. I sometimes put my bass boat in at Aqualand, but mostly Shoal Creek. Holiday Marina is nice. Do you live on your houseboat? I'll email you, possibly going fishing next weekend. |
