The NE wind theory is proving to be correct. Eager to fish but the NE dictate that I will come home empty handed. Tried again yesterday and the Northerlies kicked in in the afternoon. No luck.
SE in the morning Friday...........I will see if anything changes
I was reading Ron Calcutts fishing book on the weekend and his opinion was that the wind direction was linked to prevailing weather systems ie dropping barometer or changes in water temp which could either start or shut a system down due to the effect on fish feeding/holding patterns. This supports what Ian was saying about northerlies being linked to dropping barometric pressure.
Calcut is spot on, I can assure you, if you get a North wind and it is not caused by a "Lowering" of pressure, as can happen the fish will not know which way the wind is blowing, 'cause they do not watch the weather on TV
Re-read it last night and the explanation was actually, if certain wind direction is linked to a persistantly low barometric pressure then fish will shut down until the pressure begins to rise, the result being hungry fish when this occurs and a smart fisho will target effort at this point in time.
He also goes on to discuss the effect of a certain wind pushing warmer/ colder water in to a region with the result of causing fish to move or if unable to move again just shutting down and conserving energy. This supports Noel's contention that the fish don't give a damn about wind just the effects linked to it and how it affects their food availability and enviroment. If you see the book read the section it's very well thought out and written.
