Bad day for it with the large tidal exchange - especially if you've never done it before.  It ain't the wind, it's the tides.
The fish bite twice a day - just before we get here and right after we leave.

yeah, for what it's worth, the 'action' there is really concentrated during the slack around the tide changes; strong tides are your enemy. 

Wednesday is my top pick, the light wind forecast should hold, I would do a 'first light launch' and fish through the weak 9am high, through slack and into a weak outgoing tide until it was time to go.

I Agree with Tinker and Rogerdodger on a no go day with that tidal swing. The current will be rippen!
