Tide and Moon Phase?
 
Looking for someplace I can find the moon phase and tide conditions for the rest of the season? Any help appreciated?:confused:

Get the eldridge tide and pilot book. It has everything you need and more for the east coast including the canal, nobska, etc. No serious angler can be without one. :musc: Costs about 12-13 U.S.

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not but doesn't that pic of the moon in the top right of the webpage with the link to "moon phase info" provide
that info?

You don't need both. The tide will tell you the moon phase, and vice versa.

For this area, the two key tidal stations are Boston and Newport. Cape Cod Bay, the backside, and Nantucket Sound run off Boston. Local variations along the main coastline will only be a matter of minutes. Vineyard Sound, Buzzards Bay and Rhody's open coast run off Newport. Same local variations.

Boston's high tide will be at midnight on the new and full moons, and around 6 PM on the half moons. Newport's high will be around 8:15 PM on the new and full, and around 2:30 on the halfs. They'll run about 40 minutes later each succeeding day.

In the Canal, low slack will be between 4:10 and 4:30 on the new and full moons. High slack will be around the same time on the halfs. Figure the same 40-45 minute later time frame each succeeding day.

Estuaries will vary, but if you know the difference for the water you fish, you only need to know the moon phase to know what time the tide is.

Moon and tide are married to each other. If you know one, you can figure out the other.

I think the average person would have a better chance understanding the fundamentals of space time...myself included :eek:

spence, I need to take off my shoes to count to 20. Math is the reason I'm a lawyer and not a doctor. If I can figure it out, anyone can.:eek:

spence 06-02-2006 06:02 PM

That's the problem, it's too simple!

Seriously, I've read the same thing a hundred times and I can't for the life of me remember it...
