I think a majority of it will be swell, although if it does blow E15 on saturday like that says there will definitely be some chop mixed in

The shifting light winds will account for tiny chop and towards sunday night about 1-2 feet of NE chop.

Are you kidding? I love this stuff. 7 footers at 15 secs is like driving a cart down the golf course. But getting out of Chatham Hahbah will be more like the signature waterhole hazard!

We were planning on fishing the Niantic Canyon Tourney this weekend. I don't understand why it was cancelled

Gents,

On the fence for tomorrow in CC Bay/Western Edge. Dominant wave period does seem to be lengthening a bit, but it will have to lengthen a lot more for me to make a run with solid 4-6'ers looking to be prominent.

Anyone committed for tomorrow or even waiting to make a game time decision in the a.m.?
