It almost looks like Eleven Mile State Park to me. Iâm going back there this summer with the kayak. Itâs up in South Park. That may be not it but the south side of 11 Mile looks like that.

Whatâs that old sayingâŚâWind from eastâŚâ
The wind was a steady breeze of about 12-15 mph when we launched. Straight out of the east, but the weather liars predicted it to fall during the day. We set out in search of crab trap buoys, and deployed fish attractors. The bay water was the color of diarrhea with enough chop and wind that running in a quartering sea was the equivalent of a saltwater shower. Air temp was about 60F and that is chilly for mid-May in the sunshine state.
I caught the first fish of the day about 9:30A. It was just a bit short of a keeper when it measured 17.75". They have to be 18" to be legal. Back to the bay for you.
The second fish came aboard about 10A and the wind was noticeably dropping. This one measured 18" on the tip of the tail. Yay!
The third fish was on a few minutes later and it was a small black tip shark.
A few minutes later the wind began to steadily increase. Then it began to blow and whitecaps and 2â seas made for reduced speed and a body beating in a 22â skiff.
The video is a small taste of the building wind.
Beating
We made it back to the launch about 1P, and we decided to take a break to see if the wind would drop. The Hole in the Wall was ready to feed us and the beer was cold. I had a grilled grouper sandwich and a couple of Sweetwater 420âs (what else? ) At 2P it was still blowinâ and all the flags were flying perpendicular to their flagpoles. Our day was done.

Nice!
You didnât get skunked, nobody got hurt, and you got good food at the end of the day. I can understand some disappointment at the lying weatherman, but that still qualifies as a good day.
Learning is half the fun. I can remember doing the exact same stuff, going crazy with no pattern.

Wind from the east, three days at least.
Thatâs the New England saying.

Here we say wind from the east, bite the least, wind from the west, bite the best. I guess it all depends on your area.

Interesting. Iâm pretty sure this has to do with the predominant westerlies. When we get an east wind here off the Atlantic it is definitely unfavorable. When a northeaster comes up the coast itâs one day comin, one day stayin, and one day leavin⌠at least. So when it blows from the east the fishermen fix their gear etc.

It was definitely a good day. The weather man is a known liar so there was no disappointment.
