Fishing East Coast this Weekend

#1 Post by adrwdarcy »

Hi all

I was on Met.ie checking the weather for the weekend and I saw that there will be a light to moderate northwesterly breeze.

Does anyone think this will have a good impact on the fishing??

Anything seems better than an easterly wind as far as I'm concerned. unless of course in August and you are looking for a bass.
