Yes I would favor the last hour into slack than the full running tide. Large fish will hold and wait for food behind structure - they are attracted to some places more than others. Hooking a large fish during a running tide - like in the canal is tough! Most huge fish are taken there when the water is barely moving.
This whole convo applies to inlet/rivers/canals (with strong current)and is totally different than a rocky shoreline or beach. I'm also commenting on large fish - 40#s and up. This has worked best for me, just sharing my experience.

Not starting any trouble at all. And yes this is a very good discussion. My comments are also meant to apply to inlets etc. Let's agree to disagree.
I would suggest to all reading this thread to keep logs, try different stages of the tide and draw your own conclusions.
