Good advice. Thankfully I wouldn't be navigating between the jetties as I would launch at the beach on the east side near the jetty facility. I've cruised up and down the jetty and caught pretty good; but you're right, if and when that wind suddenly picks up, it's not so much fun...downright scary.
