Weather System

[Norman]

Well this weathers really been a shocker of late, lots of comps BBQ`s etc etc cancelled.
I know of 3 comps a regatta and a BBQ cancelled from Royal Quays Marina alone this year and it`s only July

Still, as bad as it`s been lately it would appear that sun/mon will see us in the eye , the quieter spot of this present system .(hence all the weather forcasting sites seem to disagree with direction of wind since it`ll be continually changing, but they do agree its going to be smaller than of late with less rain)

So ... Is anyone having a try for a big doubler, I expect I`ll be out there with crew tomorrow (Sunday), who else are we looking for out there ?
We`ll be on Channel 8 .............. give us a call if your out

Where do you "Boatists" check your weather forecasts? the BBC weather site is prob a bit too vague I would imagine...

I usually go off xc waether.

We're gonna try heading out tommorow and hope the swells died off a bit.

But whear to go is the question;

The wrecks don't seem to have been doing that well over the last week or so,
south of Hartlepool was doing well on the rough ground but now theirs been loads of fresh water coming from the tees so I recon that will put the fishing off down their and I hav'nt heard any good reports of good fishing north of hartlepool on the rough ground. Also if we head up north and the wind picks up we will have the wind in our face on the way back.

decisions desisions

Then again tho two days out fishing are never the same and things could all change lol.

I use this one as well:

http://www.fishingwx.com/longrange.php

has a load of xtra info which useful, one being the barometric pressure, if the its falling during the day its generally a bad sign. If its falling fast its a very bad sign!

gives you tide and swell direction predictions as well

might try get out the morra, having the week from hell. Burying my father in law on thursday, and just spent the day today saying goodbye to my dad, he's dying and he knows it. he might last the week, maybe 2

being a grown up really is ****

Sounds like you need / deserve a day out fishing Mark.
