for me the key is to find the H incoming/L outgoing of your Title in conjunction with nearby areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

meaning that i tend to work SECTIONS of Cape Ann, The Ditch, AQI, Gansett, and SoCo from Low to High to Low to High again, or vice versa based on when i can be there and for how long. sometimes it's a much narrower window,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

however when i can, i try to fish as many of the PRODUCTIVE phases as possible in between and dependent on my best intell/lawgs/pm's for any given SPOT and series of spots that are within workable distances of each other. that, of course, is subject to change ~~frequently. but in this way i am able to cover more preferred lies at their "best" times.

then again there are those nights that i hunker down, based on too much info,,,,,,,,,and the dreaded, "should i stay, or should i go" dilemma consumes me!!

and then there is the fishing in the "blind" factor that is nothing short of AMAZING, sometimes. often, i'll happen on a spot for the 1st time and it will WHAIL!!! and this is the stuff of which George, The Wiseone, speaks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,doan ask me why, but perhaps it's the searching of the unknown, the reading of water w/out pre-formed criteria, or just sheet-bum, blind-arsed, feels right, hey what about that current/drop/flat/structure/trough/eddy/wind driection/younameit that i've yet to try, and BINGO you cain't MISS!! the key there is, to remember the data and to try to get it to repeat.

likewise, there are many places that i've yet to even get a bump from,,,,,,,,,,,,,but i just KNOW will produce one night, so i keep them honest, sometimes to a fault!!

i still have waaaaaay too much to learn, with only six migrations under me belt. yer better off listening to the wily vets, i'm still trying to finger out how to work a needle without losing it to the bottoms!!

hope this helps,,,,,,,,,,,,keep at it and yer time will be rewarded~~~

between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Happy Hunting to ALL!
