Conditions for sea trout

[daveyboy]

Lads just wondering can anyone give advice on good weather and tide conditions for sea trout? I bit the bullet and bought the licence a few weeks back but they seem to have vanished since then ( I have that effect on fish!) The mullet seemed to be making an appearance a few weeks back and seem to have dissapeared too. Is it all these easterly winds maybe? The water has been murky true enough but even the odd time when the water is clear there's no sign of them jumping etc and no sign of the mullet either. I should say - I'm fishing the Dublin estuaries
Aiming to catch my first sea trout this year so any help/pms would be much appreciated

I've always found calm seas crystal clear water and have had mine at the bottom of the tide when spinning best spinners this year for me this year have had a touch of blue on them ,as for the beaches it's just been pot luck when using Sandeels or rag tipped with mackerel

Don't forget lads even if you don't see them jumping they are always there

Thats kind of what I was thinking alright. Calm weather, clear water, not too bright. Heard before that they jump to get rid of lice off their body? Sure I'll keep at it anyhow. Is it harder to catch them into June/July than Spring?

The spring is always best cause they are feeding hard before the enter the rivers in the next few weeks but there is always a few about all year,but around now is the best time of year in my opinion which is great as It coincides with the bass bsn
