Fetch length is the distance reached by the wave generating winds when measured in from a horizontal direction. The wind creates wave by forming a drag and a frictional drag, the wind the flow over the wave making it grow. Therefore, a strong, long duration winds in a moderate fetch or weak fetch will produce largest waves.
