Could not disagree more. IMHO slack water is the least productive point of the tide. Big Bass are lazy opportunistic feeders. They will ambush easy prey, expending as little energy as possible in the process. At slack, the bait has no current to fight and is the least vulnerable. It has been my experience that the last hour before slack or the first hour after slack are the tide windows for large. In that 15 to 30 minute slack time I found that getting a cup of coffee from my thermos is time well spent.
