Wind drift occurs when the surface water is moved towards one end of the lake, and subsurface water moves in the opposite direction to compensate. The amount of drift can be quite considerable.

Remember, with wind drift, that the float is being blown one way, the hook bait towed in the opposite direction.

Depth of water; strength of flow; size of bait; number, placing and size of split shot; and line diameter will all play a part.

The important thing to remember is that, like river fishing, there is likely to be a bow in the line between float and hook. You need to fish overdepth to compensate for this, paricularly if you are aiming to present a bait at or near the bottom.

The other thing to remember is that your groundbait/loose feed is going to end up a long way from where it hits the water, and will probably be scattered over a wide area, as first the surface drift drags it one way, then back the other way as the undertow takes command. Consider using a feeder to bait a tight area. The sink rate of the groundbait needs to be taken into account.

Especially if you are fishing for summer shoals, mid water; working out where they are gathering to intercept the loose feed is the secret. If you are just throwing in feed around your float, you could just be drawing fish away from your hookbait!

Bringing all these factors together, and finding the fish, isn't at all easy.

But then when you start catching, and other anglers, just going through the motions aren't, it ain't half satisfying!
