North East's Fishing aka "sod's law"

[northeast1]

Winter time beach fishing


Flat sea, clean water



Sunny, light winds from west



Summer time boat fishing


Dirty stirred up water



Gales from all directions with ENE being the norm

Mother nature is a right cow m8 the weather will right itself again hopefully

Yes, don't like to be pessimistic but even when (if) the wind corrects itself to a westerly aspect it'll then take a couple of weeks to correct what goes on beneath the waves

Pretty lousy start to the season...the only happy person in my house is the wife! :red:

Its worse when the fishing was so good with bags of 40+ codling before the NE winds started, as you say the dirty water killed it a couple of weekends back and will of only got worse now...gutted

I like to have a different approach...

weather is an integral part of our hobby..the good, the bad and the ugly. There are other hobbies to chose from if we dont accept that (Darts, Snooker, Chess etc)

We are like a surfer who can only appreciate the perfect wave after hundreds of hours in the water.

I love to see the sea changing within a day, an hour a minute...sometimes its frustrating..

But the humbling magnitude of mother nature is what I like about it...the unpredictability is part of the fun (like in football).

If everyday would be great conditions, with Gin-like water and wrecks full of 30 pounders waiting for your shad---IT WOULD BE BORING

However---To me it looks like you get a nice break next weekend and the post of "Mistress" suggests that there is fish about.

I work all weekend coming and I do not moan---but look forward to a tremendous season ahead

But for moaning you have Newcastle United as an ideal source !!

I cannot even use football (supporting Bayern Munich !!)
