Holiday Lodge today?

I hear there's enough water to put in at Holiday Lodge...but I also see 10 to 15 MPH forecast out of the south/southwest. I've not fished Sardis a lot...is it worth launching from Holiday under these conditions?

South wind can sink you at the ramp.....have seen lots of boats swamped before they could get the truck parked. Safest ramp is Engineers Point

Thanks G. It would suck to watch everyone else catch fish while I bailed water out of my boat!

Trust me....with a stout South wind, you'll be doin more than bailing out water. You'll need a pump and plenty of hoses. Not kidding either.

I just rolled my fishing plans to tomorrow...the wind should be a lot lower.

What ever wind is in the forecast....it always seems to be double that at the lake

I saw a guy get sunk on the ramp at Beach Point one time...it didn't look fun.

Zero boats have sunk at holiday this year with some pretty brutal wind. U just gotta use some common sense

Good post petie.

Yeah, but G is right. If its 8 mph on land, it's the equal of 15 on the water, least it seems to be.
