For the surf guy, you want the big body (stellwagon fish for example) to get pushed in shore to have a slaughter night. Certain hard winds or storms could do this. The tricky part is timing, and knowing where on the coast it could happen. Each area I fish has the "perfect storm" conditions to do this, but you're at the mercy of the weather, and even then it doesnt pay off all the time. The odds are tough, but when they go in your favor be ready for a banner night.

Then like rockfish9 said, the normal, stable conditions are much easier to deal with as things are more routine and consistent.

1-2 days before the storm hits can be insane. Last year my two best nights of fishing (one was fresh water, one was salt) occurred while the storms were out over NY/NJ and headed our way. Maybe not a guarantee, but I know where I'll be looking and when if this storm heads our way.

It's the fishing hole

I'm not liking the 11am model consensus at all.
