tidal paterns are without a doubt your best friend. Many estuarys river inlets and bays are prime examples, many of us move with the tide and enjoy sucess long after others have hung up the rods and called it a day!

What it means to me is spot specific.... where and when I fish a spot is totaly dependant on tide....then throw in the wind... maybe moon phase... but it all begins with the tide.
