Wind direction & time of year.

Strong onshore blows will weed up most areas, but this can be the time that the fishing is at its best aswell!

i think weed is the enemy of most anglers but as alby says it can be a sign the fishing is good,finding spots on the coast that dont have weed on them when all around them is unfishable is the trick ,these spots can be stuffed with fish ,its something that takes lots of homework to find out

i sometimes think a helicopter would be your only answer
