wind block

[Capt Jake]

I'm looking for a wind block or wind shelter. Kind of like a half tent. I've seen some on the beach at AI, but havn't seen them at any local stores. Anyone know of a maker or website that sells something like this.
Thanx, Jake

Any kind of netting or fine mesh will work, with temp fence poles to hold it up.
Another good product is weed barrier, you can buy a roll pretty cheap.

12x12 ez up with the add on solid sides. You can close the whole thing or just one side if you want. probally cost you around 100.00 at dicks sporting goods

Here is one site that has the wind blocks you are asking about.

Thanx guys, I can take it from here. That web site has one I think can work for me.

Just thought I would send along a photo from the Fling - Oma's Solar Shade.

I bought it on E-Bay from BayShoreInc for $39.00 Buy It Now. It's made by Eureka.

By the way - kept me dry during the first storm - but I have to get longer tent spikes, because during the second storm the back spikes came up. I had to hold on until the wind died down long enough for me to go out and secure them again.

Did you guys notice I didn't turn into a lobster like Oliver and so many others on Saturday. Actually, I have Lupus and shouldn't be in the sun. But I'm not willing to give up on something I love to do, so I purchase swim shirts made out of special UV sun protective fabric from Solartex, I make long pants out of UV protective swimsuit fabric, have a UV protective hat and wear enormous amounts of sunscreen. Maybe that's why I only catch skates . . . . Seriously, though, I use Angler Shield - supposedly bait friendly!
