Now I know you have a low transom boat, and you can't go out in 1 to 2 ft. waves, but with all of the creeks and inlets off the the CB, there must be hundreds of places that even you can boat safely. http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/fmtb.../an/anz531.txt According to http://www.chesapeakebayweather.com/ the weather is North winds, less than 10 mph and lastly it is 10 mph at Annapolis at 10 am http://noaa.chesapeakebay.net/bayweather.aspx Since 5 - 15 knots is probably fairly common for the CB, you might have purchased the wrong boat if you can't use it under those conditions. I know your LT will send the waves crashing into the boat with 1 ft. waves, but you can purchase some really nice boots to keep your feet dry at: http://www.westmarine.com/ I see bass boat fishing in 20 mph winds when it is 30 degrees outside, so I guess it depends upon your skill level. |

I'm cutting you and several others a new deal. You are temporarily out of my bozo bin. Beginning today, if you and the others I have released behave reasonably, I will treat you the same way. But when you post one of your snide little insults, as you have above, I'll simply call you out on it thusly: Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from ______________________, and if you count them up, you will see what he adds here in "boating" content. The __________________, obviously, will be reserved for the name of the insulter. Oh...just as a point of information, Chesapeake Bay is a large body of water and has differing weather patterns depending upon location. Here's mine: Forecast as of 11:28 am EDT on September 23, 2007 Chesapeake Bay From North Beach To Drum Point- Chesapeake Bay From Drum Point To Smith Point- This Afternoon N winds 15 kt. Waves 3 ft. From 7 to 10 AM today, the weather station on the Thomas Point lighthouse was reporting winds between 15 and 22 knots, and gusts to 22 knots. Three foot waves of the kind we have around here do not make for pleasant fishing. Try to be a little more than a GoogleBoater, eh. |

(just askin') I was going to go out and fish some today, but decided to leave the fishing boat on the trailer and attend to chores. |

Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from "Reggie Smithers", a frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see how little he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting reading. |

Harry, I am curious, how is this a "daily attacks"? |

Three foot waves of the kind we have around here do not make for pleasant fishing. Harry, If the weather in the area you normally fish has 3 ft. waves, why not change your fishing location to the leeward side or a island, peninsula or go to one of the 10,000 coves in the Chesapeake Bay. Even on my little lake it is common for wind to pick up and make parts of the lake unpleasant, including some of my favorite spots. If the weather is still nice, I just move to the leeward side of an island and have a wonderful day on the lake. |
