Hey whippersnapper any wind over 15 knots Is unpleasant. Offshore at papamoa Is south/southwest Early morning Is best time to avoid wind. Surf needs to be smallish too. Port of Tauranga harbour conditions give you a live wind and swell reading which will save you an unecessarytrip to the beach once you learn what Is ok. 1.0m swell or less and 10knots and under Is a good start.
The harbour can be tricky with boat traffic, weed, current etc and paddling 1-2kms off papamoa Is far more reliable to catch a feed.
Gdog the expression says It all congrats.
