mitch this is the info from the link you posted.
Light winds with a slight chop. Small short period wind waves.
Winds: E 9 to 12 knots
Seas: NNE 5 feet at 8 sec

thats a pretty long interval between five footers. and its going to be a swell. I would call that do able

We have trailer problems so the boat will not be moving. I am going shark fishing off the beach over here in Naples tomorrow night instead. (monster bulls and blacktips)

It was doable last night. It was just spread out enough, but still had a little wind chop. Not a bite for us. Home in bed by 12 though and still did a 10 mile drift!

We managed a 55 incher and an escolar which we released both. Seas were choppy but doable, winds layed down and shifted around 12ish. Slow night on the radio we only saw 4 other boats in our area.

Was not nice up here. There were not enough hours in the day to get deep enough to do what I had in mind. Just trolled around until my nephew and then again. Back at the dock in time to see my Dolphins mess it up again. Here's to 0-10
