Guest cazbeckham Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Eddie Just had a thought, while Tina is in the UK you did say she would come back to find a dog and a motorbike perhaps you could squeeze in a 4 stroke engine as well or would that be pushing your luck????? If she chucks you out you can stay with us hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the wind direction make a difference where you are?? It does here - can be the same speed but if it comes from one direction folk won't go out but same speed / different direction everyone is happy. So much to learn yet!

It might only be a light to moderate wind but if it's a king tide, flowing into the oncoming wind, then the waves will stand up.........if the wind stays the same direction all day, then you have a fishing window of 6 hrs when the wind is blowing with the tide. kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in that situation and beam on to a big swell the other day. It didn't help that my fishing buddy was fishing on the same side as me either. We fish mainly on the run in tide ,catching lots of Squid and Cuttlefish on the period of slack water. Last time it happened we ended up with 13 squid and 5 ,3kg cuttlefish.The boat was covered in bloody ink due to a newbie pulling em' in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
