I would not get too down yet. I haven't seen too many accurate wind predictions for 3-4 days ahead from any meterologist. Good luck with the weather and the fish!

Re: 12 pound Atlantic Salmon

Polebreaker,
Have your brother head to the Finger Lakes to salvage his trip. If the winds are from the north fish the north end,winds from the south fish the south end. They're long,narrow lakes and the waves build as they head down the lake. Owasco Lake is 11,000 acres, Cayuga 42,000 acres, and Seneca 44,000 acres. Seneca is the widest and roughest.Lakers over 10 lbs, Browns and Bows up to 10 lbs, and some Atlantics up to 8 lbs. I don't think he'll be disappointed. At least he'll get the shot to wet some lines. All are 75 mts. or less drive from Oswego area.
