Hey,
So i just moved from Cali to Chicago suburbs. Ive heard of some surf on Lake Michigan and was wondering if some one could point me in the right direction. Surf Shops or websites? Thanks!!

respect
I am in awe of lake surfers. I spend most of the winter chasing the fickle surf in Cornwall UK, and get upset when the water drops to 9 degC and the waves suck...And we've got a 3000 mile fetch of Atlantic storm track! Keep it up fellas, and don't take no notice of some wave fat nimrod from surf city.

I guess hurricanes to reach the gulf of mexixo. Oh wait , yes they do , frequently. That means Louisiana does get waves der.
