first time fishing lake Chelan.. Never been on a lake before where the weather at the south end of a lake is a calm 5 mile an hour southerly wind at 5mph. and the north end is a trechourous30 to 40mph northerly wind. It was like a westport bar crossing on a nasty day. I needed fuel so i was committed to reaching the fuel dock... spray was going over the windshield the chop was 5 to 7 foot deep.. I fished and fished the upper half of the lake.. but the weather kept chasing me off...... i was there four days.. camped out at Graham. launched at 25 mile...... I would like to go again but this time ill fish the south end..........

That lake can get down right nasty. I fished a bass tournament there and I got a lesson in rough water driving. Lost a pair of sunglasses by barely spearing a wave. A bass tourny was held there last weekend, it was BAD conditions again. Heard since the water was low several props were damaged right at the boat launch before blast off, and more swells. Hope you caught some fish and go back again.
