just in the door from an aborted fishing trip :( :( :( metcheck predicted 30mph easterly winds and -1 temps with heavy sleet/ rain /snow. pretty much hit the prediction spot on other than the winds gusting to easily 50mph :shock: :shock: :shock: . soaked to the skin and almost blown off the pier with every cast resulting in 20lb of kelp fouling the rigs within 5 mins. depressing stuff without a sign of a fish. but if you get out and fish the first flooding tide into darkness when the weather breaks there will be plenty of natural bait churned up for them to have a good feed on :wink: that's when we'll be back out to do it all over again :P

Wind seems to drop off on Sunday and Monday then kicks back in Tuesday , so give the Mrs a good seeing off on Saturday and hop back into bed to rest up for a good day of it on Sunday / Monday,

Bring the rain gear,
