I understand that many anglers can't pick and choose the times they get to go fishing. Many will go regardless of what the weather is doing, has been doing or is forecast to do. Others, and I'm not knocking them for it, are fairweather anglers. However, I've learned an awful lot about watching the weather this year and have been able to plan round it and take advantage of favourable weather. That doesn't necessarily mean "good" weather though. Today's weather hasn't exactly been good but I rather hope it is going to be favourable. I've picked my spot based on current wind and how it's due to shift. I also came a day early to catch the "best" of the low pressure. Sadly, I know that fishing doesn't always work to plan though and I may well blank despit being fairly confident I've got it right. How many of those in FM land keep a close eye on past weather, current weather and forecast weather to pick their times, venues, pegs, tactics etc etc?
