That's a good one I use. Anyone else have any others?

Thats a pretty sweet site.

from 6:16am to 8:16am, very high activity

Major period (moon down)

from 12:53pm to 1:53pm, high activity

minor period (moonrise)

from 6:35pm to 8:35pm, very high activity

Major period (moon up). This period of high activity coincides with sunset; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing

I have used that site for the last 2 years, works great for me.

In fact, I am trying to talk my buddy into going out from sunset and into the night tomorrow as it says it could be an excellent time for fishing.

I use whatever time and day I can get to go fishing. If I waited for optimum time, I probably wouldn't get to go.

Generally I fish when time Allows but the solar tables do seam to work. They're are people who swear by them. Often for bay fishing where tide flow is critical you want to fish the tides Around the new aNd full moon. Mike

the Weather Channel (weather.com), has a good fishing section.

(no tide tables, but those are available everywhere)

weather.com has actual "charts" of the similar "high & low activity" periods info, that is included in "text form", in the Tides4Fishing.com tide table.

(and the charts are available for every different zip code.)

here is an example.....

These are the two that I've used and hadn't had any luck following them. I'll try yours for a while.
