Default To do or not to do?

This Saturday I was thinking of doing a trip w/ my cousin to fish spruce run reservoir for the first time. They are showing 30% chance of thunderstorm. I live about an hour away. Should I head there or do you guys recommend on going somewhere closer like passaic river and wait for a better day?

Mike

Go ahead and chance it.
If you don't do anything - then nothing will happen.
If you go, you might get rained on , or you might have a great day fishing.

chance of thunderstorms = unstable barometer = good fishing weather
i would go

don't be reckless though, if you start hearing thunder, get off the water

If I were you I would wait til tomorrow night to check the weather. That said I should be there
Saturday. I'll personally go at 30% all the time....especially because my fishing is limited to weekends. I just check the radar every once in awhile on my phone.
