Obviously none of this is written in stone as I fished a west facing area Friday evening during a fairly stiff N wind an caught several fish.

Ron, sometimes, in the right place, a good hard blow can stack the fish against the shore like cordwood!  "If" you know the right place and the right wind!   |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I have never seen a thread like this? the wind is the most important or one of the most important factors of all? you guys hate the wind? you need to know how to use wind to your advantage! sometimes its only good in the begining of a hard blow, sometimes after, sometimes a hard souwest is great but two days in a row of it will gunk up the surf and make it unfishable in certain spots, some spots in the bay are great on a noreast blow etc..... Wind is your friend....................You guys cant hate the wind! learn how to use it and your score will increase! there is a spot in gallilie that is awsome from the surf DURING a hurricane!!!!!!!!
