That's pretty much what I've been using too. The lake starts to get choppy after 10-11am once people wake up and start tearing around. It calms down again around 4pm-ish when they go back to their docks or the ramp. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are usually not so bad as the extended weekend days. Since the wind blows from north to south, and picks up after noon, you should expect to run slower on the Broads if you are heading north in a small boat when it gets blustery because the chop kicks up pretty good.
