Remembering my brother and other fishing freaks always going on about the
direction of the wind it was apparently a good thing to get this peg, so I
sat for 5 hours with the wind very firmly in my face...gusting to gale
force at times...all good fun so I'm told ;o)


Hmm ..... Imo that depends on the 'type/style' of fishing and the species
being targetted, the size/characteristics and local knowledge of the lake,
the time of year, the actual wind direction, how long it has been 'from'
that direction, if it recently changed how recently and from what direction
...... amongst a few other things like for example the temperature. Also, Ime
how all these factors impinge on a quite shallow small (1acre) lake is very
different to a larger (25acre) former quarry or gravel pit.
