I'm going to one of them in an hour.......Stevenson looks stronger but the pics from Rooster made it look fun. Which one usually has better results on East wind?

I think Stevenson is typically less windy and sometimes might be more steady (not 100% on the steadiness as I haven't compared on the same day). Don't be fooled by the Rooster sensor even the gusts on it are way lower than what's on the water. A better gauge is the Corbett or Troutdale sensor. Look at those gusts and add another 10 or something like that. My bet would be that Rooster is nuked out right now unless you like being super lit on a 5m. You can always scope it out on the way East and if it's too much just keep heading to Stevenson.

Enjoy!

Stevenson was a lot more patchy than Rooster yesterday, though both weren't great.
