I learned some thing new from a tournament fisherman yesterday: "Wind from the East-fish bite the least. Wind from the South-fish bite with open mouth. Wind from the West-Fish bite the best. Wind from the North-just stay home." That is actually sound advice. I've never heard that before but have been trying to get out to fish when the wind blew from the south, not the north. And when i went to Skiatook last Friday the wind was blowing from the East. That explains the poor fishing.
