That was from the Weather.com.

I want to know if it's alright for this weekend.

looks good to me see you there

And the reality is Notaro:

Current wind speeds throughout the area, right now:

20-25 kts out of the WSW.

Friday looks to be calm with the potential for a Small Craft to Gale on Saturday.

Use www.wunderground.com

Type in the local info in the "Fast Forecast" box.

Use the marine forecast from there.

I can provide you with the local bouy info if you would like. They are available at the Noaa site here:

www.ndbc.noaa.gov/Maps/Northeast.shtml

Remember that the Buzzards bay anemometer is 15+ meters off the water. But it doesn't mean it is a LOT less windy on the surface.


:D Fish well

Correction:

24.8 meters of the water ! That's 80 ft.

Still there will be similar readings near the surface.

Otis AFB has a weather link as well but you have to pay for it. I have access through a widsurfing weather link.
It gives current conditions at that spot on the canal with a cam.

BW, the wind is gonna be calm on NB, but it's part of the Buzzards Bay.

It's goign torain tomorrow morning, but will be cloudy. The wind mph is like a bicycle speed.

Notaro,

I have to run now so I can't get right back to you immediately but where are you fishing tommorrow ?

To put weather and wind into perspective:

The land forecats for Sat. in SE MA is 10-15 out of the NE. The MARINE inshore is the same with potential for higher gusts. Underline potential. The Offshore forecast (which is me) is 15-25 out of the North with the potential for higher gusts.

It is all a forecast but remember to check and keep checking the updates. It is what we have to do so we don't become a stat.

Have a great weekend and if the breeze comes up, PUT A LIFE JACKET ON. I know they are a bit gay but, believe me, when I fish Great Point and it is ripping. I wear mine for sure .

Ciao

On the Canal tomorrow. Probably the east or west where the big fish are. I don't know yet. I gotta ask Nelson tomorrow.

its going to be nice and calm out there today :)

Current winds on the island:

North at 15 kts.

light to no winds here is wareham.

I guess that means it should be shutting down out here pretty soon. Heading out for a sunset fish.

Last night was solid 28-36" Fatty bass. These dogs are very well fed this year :D

Thinking about going deeper with some bait tonight :p

sweet :) hope i get into some fish today or tommrow.. Good Luck!

Hey guys, the wind was very cooperative with me last weekend. I got SKUNKED. I almost got some fish last Saturday with mackerel chunks. I lost two of my lures on the east, atom mack color popper and one 3 oz kastmaster w/ a green tube tail.
