Storms
Addict,
Well that had the desired effect.
I fish Nantucket and NE/E (or any blow for that matter) pushes bait inshore and can be fished with great success. A NW/N/NE wind at Great Point with an incoming tide, at night, is a MUST GO situation. I don't fish in much over 30 kts of wind as it gets FAR more dangerous and futile casting but anything around 25+kts is a winner in my book.
There is an old saying: East is Least/West is best. It couldn't be farther from the truth. I believe the key is Barometric pressure. If it drops below 29.90 it usually spells the end of the coastal bite out here. Nor'easters aren't Always big lows so checking pressure, water clarity (comments on mung are unfortunately true) and water temperature can lead to extraordinary fishing. In the Fall run the east side of Nantucket is an ideal beach face. Combine it with a manageable wind and swell and it is very productive.
Best of luck
