Beach and Tide Conditions

do not depend on Tide
on this spot.
Lake Erie / Pleasant Beach, Canada is a
Chop, Small waves and Medium waves spot.
The
launching/landing area
is reported to be of
Big size.
The beach is quite wide and easy to rig on, some times it becomes crowded with people, but there is usually some room as people don't often sit on the beach when its blowing. Also another bonus about the beach is that it is very wide and pure sand. However in the summer there is often seaweed that washes on shore and is a pain getting off the lines.
Lake Erie is the smallest of the Great Lakes - it does freeze over the winter. It gets choppy with some wind. The break (impact zone) can get as big as 1m. The swell on the outside can get as big as 4m when the winds are over 25-30 knots.
