What can I expect the Weather to be like?
In the summer months, daytime temperatures range between 65-85 degrees Fahrenheit. Mornings & evenings can be cool & refreshing, between 45-65 degrees Fahrenheit. For the greatest comfort, layer your clothing so jackets and sweaters can be removed as daytime temperatures rise or when fishing in protected bays where temperatures are warmer than on the open lake.
