Just as I was hoping. The wind switched to the SSW as I look at the windmill and the wind vane on the barn. Perfect! The wind has been gusting up to 30 from the east here. It moved my far out pole about 5 feet. That rarely happens from the east and it is hard on docks on the American side of the river. Now it will be much calmer at the dock for us to pull it in about 15 feet and then it will be in the right depth. I do keep the wife outfitted with nice Muck knee high boots but her sisters said never let him get you hip boots. LOLOL I am not sure if they were worried I would make her fetch ducks or what.
