I'm relatively new to this but I was hoping to head the the martha rocks tomorrow morning.
Would this be a good time to do so?
Hi Mic, depends on what the wind strength is going to be. If it stays around the 25 to 30 knots SW I would advise against it if you are talking about Martha rocks... :cheers:

Hi Mic, just to show you what you will be up against when choppy at Martha rocks. First 2 pics around 30 knots, i didn't fish for long too hard to feel a bite or hold a tight line.
Last 2 pics around 20 knots which is much better conditions to fish in...

30 knots..

20 knots

Don't get stressed about it, we all lose plenty of salmon even on the beach right in front of you...thats why I love fishing for them, they fight to the bitter bloody end..
Thanks Carl I'll remember that one. :thumbsup:
