Hi Animal! A dunno about your neck of the woods, but we never seem to catch much down here when theres a Northerly wind. It was a northerly yesterday (29th) so i never bothered trying!!!!!!.
Maybe you should give tactic another go when the winds from the SW? cheers Rob.

Went off Christchurch ledge yesterday. No mackerel (but high tide normally best and I was out at turn of low). fair few bream around though on squid strip and, best when the tide turned, big chnks of mackerel aimed at non-existent bass. Oh yes, and some doggies too  |
