Moderate rainfall (7mm) may bring some water movement. Watch for fish moving to new lies as water rises slightly.
A southerly has held for 7 hours, running colder than the water (13°C air against 15°C water). The end it blows into is taking that chilled surface water, so try the sheltered southern end instead — off the back of the wind, where the undertow returns food along the bottom. That chill sits in the top of the water, though, and the bed is slower to feel it — on a bottom bait it is the undertow, not the temperature, that puts you at this end. Treat it as a tiebreaker between good swims rather than an override — features and angling pressure usually count for more.
With limited drift, anchor or fish static from sheltered positions. Work Muddler Minnow on the bob and Perch Fry on the point.
If the main plan is not working, switch to a smaller, more imitative pattern fished slower and deeper. A change of drift angle can also make a difference.
Watch for Sedge towards evening — this could be the best window of the day.
Strong wind makes boat fishing difficult — sheltered bank spots near lee shores will fish best.
