The wind does not look very favorable for Saterday. It seems like the wind is blowing at 30+km/h SE. I will also be joining if the wind goes down a bit.

30kmph is favourable for fishing off the side.
paddling in that wind is a mission.
predicted wind speed 22 gusts of 31... fairly manageable.

Just plan your trip. Make sure you don't have to paddle against the wind in the afternoon when you have to leave. That said, I've been there that I paddled from the island to Kotze street into a howling SE and therefore I know it is doable. Uncomfortable maybe, but doable. We do it for the exercise, don't we? And that is a good workout.
I nearly forgot, a good anchor system is of the utmost importance. A small foldable anchor did not work for me the last time, I want to try my new "bruce" anchor on Saturday.

Fish should bite nicely in the wind however i would concentrate my effort to the main channel that runs into the lagoon past the cliffs. That way, should the wind become too unpleasant, one could free wheel? um paddle home with the wind at your back.

I have never been at the island before. Will that mean that we would rather fish more to the prawn banks side of the lagoon?

correct, but i would fish maybe closer to the wreck nice fish around there.

GUYS PLEASE remember this is not a competition.
It is a fun day, The wkca is not a kayak fishing club. It is a social networking group of kayak fisherman.
They only run socials & meet and greats.
YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE FISHING COMPETITIONS ON LANGEBAAN LAGOON.
Only the 'rock and shore' guys are allowed to and it is monitored by Nat. Parks, for catch and release.
I hope to see you all there, it is going to be a fun day.
If the wind blows over 20km / hour we will re look at it. But that call can only be done on friday night. This time of the year things change quickly.
Last weekend we fished is SW winds of 15km and the fish where going off.
2.5 kg stump on light tackle is serious fun.

Yes. This is a social event where some of the experts will share some info/tricks with us for free. All you need to do is pitch and ask.
We must maybe see if we can get Oom Daisy one day to come and give us a few tips at the slip.
