I know every lake is different but what’s the max wind mph shown that will make you not get on the water?

In your boat or my boat? And if it’s in your boat what type and size is it? I’ve had boats that were dangerous in anything approaching “windy” conditions. The boat I have now I fished in 20+ sustained with gusts easily into the low 30s for a good part of today.

Anything around 20 mph is more than I want to deal with. Fishing in a stiff wind is no fun for me. A bigger heavier boat might help.

15-20 and I call it quits, takes the fun out of it. If I'm in a tournament then I go into suck it up buttercup mode and deal with it.

This is about what I'll fish from the bank, with wind directly in my face. Any higher and I try to find a protected cove or something similar.

I have a 18 foot center console. I asked today because I put in at Buchanan and the weather said 15 mph from north west. That whole lake is positioned so that there wasn’t much cover today and had some pretty rough conditions. Looks like good weather tomorrow but I was only available for today. You fish when you can not when it’s good conditions lol.

Wind warnings are posted for good reasons. Some lakes are impassable with 10 mph winds. Ray Bob for one. Fished out of a 24 ft Ranger CC last week. No big deal, pine trees all around blocking wind etc . Too many variables to consider when guessing how hi is too hi.

when it is 15-25 I try to launch off a ramp that is closer to where I plan on fishing.
less than that I can run to other places.
