Weather is major factor in planning fishing trips.

Try to get out once a fortnight. Work is a big factor. And if im lazy and not really keen if the weather is terrible i wont go.

Always used the thought if u wanted for the perfect weather or tide u wouldnt go fishing at all.

So go when i can if i can.

Im semi retired so i used to go nearly every day.
That was good fun but i find that i now get out a couple of times a week and thats enough :lol: :lol:

I pick and choose when i go now

I feel a bit sorry for those who want to go out but cant.
If you want to go whenever, you could always retire. The hours are great but thwe pay is poop :lol: :lol: :lol:

Generally only get the chance to fish on weekends, so have to make the best of whatever crappy situation arises. Generally once a week with the odd weekend skipped out at this time of year.

I can only manage about once a month because my boss is a complete pain in the ass ( cough cough) and always makes me work everyday hahahaha
Id love to fish every couple of days :fishing: :catch:

Every 2 weeks mainly due to FIFO remote mine work. I find that is sadly enough as the fuel prices are getting way too expensive for enjoying long trips.
