For the record though, when fishing a spot that looks like the above pic, whether its the cape or rhody or elsewhere, I like the last hour of incoming water right up inside the hole where it meets the beach. A lot of my best surf fish have been caught at this time in holes like this one.

Not arguing with ur success.Although high tide is the right tide in lots of locations I have learned through yrs of trial an error that 2-3 hrs down can also be as productive in a local like this.Depends how far those adjoing bars get covered with water.if they flood to 3 ft or so I have found the fish will wander up on the bars an will not set up to where they are supposed to be till the water drops.As the water drops bait will scurry out of there also.I have found thats when u will have the best concentrations of bait an the fish with the diner bell being rung..I would carefully disect both sides.Starting along the beach working the towards the right then the left.If there is a cross wind I would start on the side pushing the water out of the hole..Making short casts fanning out.I like to catch whats close first.I also Don't need to be standing in the water for this.I like to stay back. I really believe lots of guys who get right in the surf spook most of the fish they are tryin to catch before they get the chance.
