Greetings fellow anglers. I am new to forum and boat fishing. Quick question, I need to get into what the best conditions are. This Saturday is west wind with 3 ft swell, would yoU all happily go out in these conditions? Hope to contribute to forum in future (will try not to ask any more dumb questions) cheers!

Hi welcome onboard. west wind is good, the thing is what size boat you go out in small boats cant always get out when big ones can.
The best conditions sea like a millpond and glorious sunshine

Just looked at BBC weather and tomorrow dont lok that bad light showers later on and wind only 10mph west and no mention of thunder. That's the s shields forecast anyway.

3rd day in a row called off due to wind and just looked at the weather from now until Sat morning its gale force west south west..come on give us a break after teasing us with a nice April.

One thing i have noticed this year..when the weather says 10mph winds gusting upto 30mpe for example..just read that as blowing 30mph all the time and forget about the 10mph bit.

Friday is next day to head out but so far its 33mph sw wind...flatish sea but pointless drift.

 

[The Great Wallsendo]

XC Weather has been right for the last few weeks (years?)

It's got the wind dropping off and swinging round to the south by friday/sat

...fingers crossed

 

[northeast1]

It was wrong on Sat thats for sure, if that was 12mph wsw wind then today must be 200mph

Same as every year look at the window in the morning and go or dont go, every site total guess work.

Fingers crossed that at 6am the wind is light and the weather is anything but thunder storms and i be out there all day doing my fav wreck route...should fill in 11 hours of travel and fishing.

 

[northeast1]

Hoping for it to be like this on Friday, Sat and Sunday

 

[Falcone]

hope is a wonderful thing and i share the hope, but the forecast at present doesnt look too promising with 15mph+ and up to 25mph gusts.

 

[Funkmeister_Smith]

Magic Seaweed reckons no incoming swell on Sat morning 6am but with SSW winds of 13mph & gusts of 24mph.

We're putting our boat back in the water (Seaton Sluice) on Friday evening after spending many months tarting her up, so would be nice to think we could get out on Sat morning for a ~4am early start! Be nice to have a cheeky hour or so on Fri night too as it shows pretty much the same forecast, but we'll just have to play it by ear.

Anyways, see you all out there hopefully!

 

[Falcone]

well im hoping that msw shows a bit lighter winds for tomorrow as im lifting in tonight and was planning the same early start and hopefully get a good few hours before the wind picks up, but at the moment its still showing a tad too strong which is a shame because the all other aspects of the weather are perfect.

 

[northeast1]

At 6pm tonight the sea was like glass and it was blowing a gale on the pier, at least 25-30mph wind.

I think it will be be slight at worst this weekend but with a massive tide and strong wind..at least half of the day will be a loser with the drift.

I report this time Friday night good or bad
