Northerlies = No Fish Y/n

[fella]

thanks guys , a few conflicting reports but as always said a bad day fishin is a better than a good day at work . we've paid for the boat so i guess were out there. . . . i,ll keep in touch with results. we'll be fishing 9 and 12 mile also if wind allows might try inside banks ..

All thew best fella,
(I read somewhere that the Northerlies bring down the dirty water... My question is, where does the dirty water come from?)
Safe journey, bent rods and sore arms!

G'day Ian,

Sounds as though Craig is getting into them at DI. You will have to ge me a report when he gets back. I will have to get over to Bardon and catch up with him one day soon, not sure if a couple of my old surf rods are still sitting under his house. That lump of a dog he has could have destroyed them by now.

Cheers

We were out on friday and picked up 3 nice snapper over 50cm wind did get up and make it a little quick on the drift otherwise northerly no different to fish for us

[fella]

oh well , , wind blew over 20 knts (n) so operater cancelled the hire . just as well alot of boats came in quick around the 11 am mark . . re booked for 10th oct , hopefully still some snap's around then ..

Caught this during a north easterly off Mud Island on the northern side. I guess he didn't know the difference in wind directions that day?

Actually given the lack of fishing time lately, if the wind is from the North but the swell is down and the forecast is around 10 knots, I'm going anyway!

Probably bag out and make myself look a real tool!

um, probably wouldn't be the first time...

Cheers,

Tim

Here in CQ any wind with west in it shuts down most fish inside the shoals

and an easterly starts a feed and northerlies have no effect at all

The exceptions seem to be the areas under the wind curtain
