Tides

[tattoobob]

To me it means moving water, a few places I fish even open beaches the current will move north to south or south to north depending on rise or fall the fish wait for bait to get swept by and feed. Other times it means falling water so I can get out to that certain rock to find a special hole. some times at spots I need water to fill or drain a bar or trough to allow bait in or out.

As the saying goes: "Tides and time wait for no one."
Depending on where and when you plan on fishing, it can play a major part in your fishing excursion.

What does it mean to me? well it means that if I wait around for the right tide I may never get to fish at all with so little time as it is!!! I do prefer certain place at a certain tide but dont let it stop me and sometimes the "wrong tide" surprises me!!!

If I'm going from shore, I always check the tides and then choose where I am going to go. I have a couple of spots for different tides and different wind conditions. If it's going to be a plus or minus tide, I may decide to stay home because I don't seem to have much luck then. As Tattoobob said, it's all about the moving water. If I'm going on the boat, I don't think about the tides too much.
