The key is, pick your days... when the winds up dont be silly and try and go out onto the main lake... stick to the channels & even in the channels you can work the side out of the wind.
Be safe, have an anchor ready, and pick your days... its very do-able... heck you see guys out there in 14ft jon's all the time.
