Hi Paul
 
Onshore wind over 10 knots can be a pain.  The jigs are quite light, and the wind can pull the jig around, and you lose touch with it.  So an ideal evening is when the winds are light or offshore and the tide is fairly full.  If you need some advice, the Squid Kings fish up that way quite often.
