Late spring early summer is good for it's predictability and for it's short nights....Things are a lot more "by the book" whereas the fall runs have been a big question mark...
Ya got your southwest wind and your late sunset, early sunrise so you can hit both and fish through the "night" in a trip that is only a little over a tide cycle...
Plus I think the fish realize that they'll only have the cover of darkness for a short period and they feed a little more aggressively after sulking through a long period of daylight...
I know a lot of the bigger fish from the Striper Cup came in early summer....
