Hi all,
I went out yesterday by myself for 4 hours. Light SW breeze, sunny 70's, small lake near my home in southern Illinois. (Silver Lake) Picked up 1st (3-1/2 lb) on the west side of the lake which was close to weedline on a chartreuse & white spinnerbait. Next one some 1-1/2 hrs later on a log on sw side of lake (3 lbs) on a jointed floating minnow blue/chrome. Nice day, 2 nice fish. Question to group: Has anyone noticed if the wind direction has any influence on their catch rate? I spent 22 years fishing in the Atchafalaya basin in Louisiana. Wind direction down there was a huge factor in catch rate. I feel the primary reason was/is due to the tide/water level influence the wind direction has on such a shallow fishery. (avg. depth in the basin is 5' to 6'. Just curious if wind direction plays any role (decisions you make) in lake fishing or whatever body of water you are reading?
