Trout Fishing Tips - Weather

"Always keep your eye on the weather!"

Weather tips

  1. Fairly obviously the type of weather that is prevailing will have a large impact on your luck. Easterly and North Easterly are the worst types of wind that you can get.
  2. Always check the wind direction before you cast. The direction and strength will have an impact on how you decide to approach a cast.
  3. It is desirable to have a slight breeze to move the top of the water. Fishing in a lake with a water surface like a mirror is difficult because casting can cause a disturbance of the water and spook the trout.
