I have fished Winnebago in the past and there was a rule of thumb on wind and waves. Anything more than 10 mph (sometimes 7 or 8) from the opposite shore meant that it would be very rough and it made sense to trailer to the other side or sit that day out. I have a 26 foot fishing pontoon that I now have in the water south of Fremont. I would like to spend some time trolling on Poygan as well as fishing for pike and panfish this summer. Since I will be accessing the lake from either the mouth of the Wolf or through Boom Bay, I was wondering if there was a similar rule of thumb on wind on Poygan. It is shallower so I am not sure if the idea matches Bago. If the wind is out of the south, east or west greater than X miles per hour, it might be really rough on Poygan for me. Any suggestions or help would be great! Thanks.
Sunny 45°
Ice: 12"
Caught some Perch, but slow.. Fished 2-1-2024. Ice is bad. Dropped trailer wheel in out of Captains cove. Was on 12 inches of ice, measured it. but then sun came out and softened it up. Ice was turning into soft honey cone. .Done unless it hardens up again....Would not go out there any more at this time....see pictures
