Sometimes it’s best to stay home…

This past few days we’ve really had a lot of wind making it just about impossible to get out on the water with a small craft. That’s when you tune in channel 16 on your VHF Marine Radio, or tune in to the NOAA weather channel on your marine radio, listen to what they are saying as it is broadcast 24/7 for your safety, then decide whether or not it is safe to venture out into the water with a small craft. There is really no sense to “push the envelope” when dealing with a real wind, real waves, and a really unsafe situation. Consider it a great time to tie more lures or simply catch up on that “honey do” list we all have. Enjoy your day. Happy Boater.
