Well i am no expert on kings or the wind and current i have done alot of fishing in my life and the one biggest factor i use to get on fish is the birds and it is the most reliable tactic i have found weather i am on the ocean or the big lake .I wont follow the fleet of boats but will allways stay with turns ,gulls,loans and commerants weather they are sitting in a area or working that area .The first thing i do when heading out to the fishing grounds is make a plan and well under way i start looking and never stop all day when i see birds thats were i head and set up there will be bait and fish . I use a good pair of binos to help locate them you only need a few .GOOD LUCK
