Hey, numbie!
I don't think that fishing tides has much to do with confidence, nor do i disagree with you about the "round the clock" feeding habits of our prey; however these posts are more about the effect tides play/do not play and how best to take advantage of thier presence within the scheme of fishing one's "spot".
like it or not, mi amigo, TIDES must be factored into the equation everytime you hit the rocks, not so much from the fibreglass, but most definitely the amount and movement of water are VERY specific at my two biggest producers ~~~~and the BITE is awwwn or off directly dependent upon which part of the tide i present my offerings.
i wholeheartedly agree, that we must be able to adapt to whatever the water, wind, moon, weather, and fish tell us to do. i just like to BEGIN with tide and move forward from there, bro
