Exmouth - when to go

Looking to get back up to Exmouth next year and was wondering what the best time of year is for lighter winds. Is there such a time ?
Always seems that when the gulf is calm the west side is blowing and vice versa and all in the same say.
Not quite sure if good weather equates to good fishing but more time on the water can't hurt.
Thanks
Paul

Any of those 4 months, feb march being damn warm still, but good.  April, May would be pick of the times in my book.  Its generally how Exmouth is, windy one side, great the other, just have to pick which days to go and do what. :)

Been up in June the last couple of years & were land locked because of wind on a few days. April May is better. Have a look at the attached historic info for Learmonth.
