Seems to be like that across the north coast at the mo - get the conditions right and there are some good bags of quality flatties, get 'em wrong and it's blank city.

I'm not even considering planning on going out until the weather improves - ie that NE component of the wind takes a hike for 4-5 days. Just not worth it.....

Gimme a nice SW gale instead. Much better chances of seeing fish.
