current is all you gotta worry about

After giving up boat fishin 2 seasons ago and finally taking the time to fish locally hard on all tides, winds and moons, I have narrowed this year down to about 12 spots that I have learned and figured out with pretty good results.\. As The Apprentice will tell ya'll, I live and die by the tides and WIND. Where I fish changes each night based upon where the tide is gonna be right for which spot (incomin; out goin) and most importantly, which spot will be fishable with eels that nights particular WIND. The distant 3rd is the moon. If it is bright, I fish my 3 deeeeep water spots. darka and I fish shallow areas. The canal is another story. As Back Beach has taught me the ways of the Eldridge Tide Book, As It is all about how strong \big the tides are. The bigger the faster the current, the better the eelin.
All this and still I figure each night where I am goin, show up, conditions are PERFECT (by fisherman standards) and the fish ain't there...........Lady Luck is the most important factor........

I don't keep a log in the general sense, but I know, from the years of doing this thing we do, that some areas in the Fall will be more productive than say mid season. :)
