Beautiful day, but for the winds. No feeeeshing for me.


Harry,

According to the National Weather Forecast, it is 5-15 knots in the open
part of the bay, with 1 to 2 ft waves. 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.

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

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:

I see bass boat fishing in 20 mph winds when it is 30 degrees outside,
so I guess it depends upon your skill level.
