Today the complete opposite. Amazing how much one day can make a difference.

One guy was struggling, maybe it was his first time. Was using a very big hard body lure. Way too big. So another guy and myself got him his bag as well lol :rofl:

............................................................................................................
Any noticeable difference between days...weather/wind etc? Also, I hope you helped the struggling guy out with some advice? Good effort as well. I can remember seeing many salmon reports here...the reports seem to have diminished!
cheers
Jim
Yea Jim the wind was totally different today compared to yesterday. Today was a W to SW well that's what it looked like to me and yesterday was a North to northwest.
Having said that I have caught plenty when it's been blowing a northerly as well as a southerly. Both days were cloudy.
I have caught them both around a high tide and a low tide so hard to work out lol
As far as the guy who was struggling goes,I gave him some good tips and showed him my plastic and told him to get something similar for next time :thumbsup:
He couldn't stop thanking me and the other guy who helped get his bag of 20.
