Tough going

We're just getting to Erie. Our guide for the day is Chris Noffsinger. He's a guide at Traverse City and an Open angler.
He's well versed on the ways of these Great Lakes. He believes the guys heading this way are having a whale of a ride.
The smoke stacks in the industrial part of these area are spewing out a steady plume of steam. The wind out of the West has that steam trail blowing parallel to the ground.
"When you see that," Noffsinger said, "you can bet the guys are bucking on waves out there."
Sounds like fun. Just another reason to be in the comfort of a vehicle.
