Sunday Weather
Submitted by Stevef on Thu, 2009-01-08 16:18
What is everybody's take on the forecast for Sunday?
It appears the best of a bad bunch, with a fair bit of south in the wind. I have a bloke keen for a fish out wide, however we are debating whether it is worth his 3 hour drive to Perth for Sunday.
Any input would be appreciated.
Cheers Steve

Sunday looks the best day
Sunday looks the best day for me down here in the South West. I'm heading round the cape to try for some Yellowtail Kings and Bluefin if they are around...? Failing that I'll anchor on a good lump and berley up.

best by far!
Early morning launch on Sunday, easing winds still with some east in it so thats fine. Good till 12 noon. By 1.30pm it will pick up and howling by 3pm at this stage!
Best day so far!

Yep.. Might be a case of early start early finish. Fingers crossed on the forecast staying as is, or even improving

Seabreeze will change right
Seabreeze will change right up to the day. With 38 deg forecast, and coming off a howling SW'er on Sat - my call is it will be all go. As Ryan said, at least til around lunchtime. Just do it.

Wind was into Rotto @ 0900
Wind was into Rotto @ 0900 this morn. As high ridges in and trough forms wind should drop back. Sunday should be the best day. Morning should be lighter winds from SE, possibly with glass off mid morn with heat of day - but once trough moves inland it will blow it's ring out (for a change?!?!?!) late morn-early arvo time to high tail and head for home

Some good info here guys,
Some good info here guys, reading the weather is an art into itself. Plenty of data available on the net but interpreting what this means is the trick.
Too many times I have been at home wishing I was at sea after calling off trips due to misinterpretation of the forecast. I suppose that the only saving grace is better safe than sorry.
We will be heading out of Two Rocks on Sunday to see how we go. The forecast for Lancelin is slightly better than the Perth forecast so hopefully the condition will be OK and the fish will be plentiful
