I bet 7-10 on the great lakes is a whole different ball game than 7-10 on the ocean. 10 on the ocean as swell is often very fishable, but if it's a steep chop, it'll thrash you and make you not want to be there. 24' is about the biggest I've fished in too, out at the Fairweather Grounds in the Glory about 15 years ago. It was BIG.
