When committed and already somewhere like at the Gorge, I've been out in light rain for awhile, but I guess for now I'm just thinking for places more local, like Willard, Echo, R.P., E.C., L.C., maybe Strawberry...This is for being in a boat...do you chance it, or wait for a better weather forecast?
I don't mind a little rain, but the wind will ruin a trip for me. I hate trying to keep the boat straight and getting blown all over when the wind is blowing. Waves aren't usually a problem, I have a 22' tritoon but the dumb thing is like a sail in the wind.
