Depoe/Fogarty tomorrow Feb. 12th?

anyone thinking of braving the cold salt tomorrow?
seems like it could be doable with primary, secondary, and tertiary swells <2ft @ 10-15s and E winds?

also, I don't have much experience in winter bottom fishing.....are the fish less active when it's this cold?

where are you seeing that forecast?

NOAA has a different story

WED...E wind 10 to 15 kt with gusts up to 20 kt. Seas 4 to 6 ft.
Wave Detail: E 3 ft at 4 seconds and W 4 ft at 14 seconds.

those 4-6 ft wind waves sound like a washing machine.  It will be doable but may want to bring some Kwells/Dramamine 

Surfline shows doable swell, but windier than I'd go out in.

Seems the best bite has been shallower, 30-70 FOW.

thanks for the tip!
Surfline is showing <2ft but if NOAA is showing 4ft I'll have to rethink going.

Windy shows a pocket of lower winds from Depoe to Lincoln but not sure how likely that is given higher winds in other places.

Surfline

from what I see, you would be going out into a building wind situation, getting stronger.  With the wind and lower temperatures,  it will be super cold and could turn sour in a short time.

appreciate the feedback everyone! gonna play it safe and wait for better conditions 

The swell was mellow today. But the east wind was whipping up whitecaps everywhere. Plus, it was 26-28 degrees this morning. I saw some boats fishing off Seal Rock on my commute from Newport to Waldport this morning. It looked straight-up miserable for kayaking.

The east winds on the coast are no joke this time of year. They may not build swell behind them, but they're almost always under-forecasted and they suck to fish in. Not to mention the frigid temps.
