Better fishing 1 day after the New Moon

June 17, 2015 By Scott Leave a Comment

Kris fished his oio spot today and I went back to fish the Waxwing test grounds where it was slow yesterday.  We both fished shortly after the tide began to rise and both saw a lot of bait fish and target fish.  Kris caught two oio and some small papio.  I saw oio, and had kaku and small white papio chase the Waxwing, but nothing stayed on the hook.

Take away:  When fishing days with large tidal swings, start fishing shortly after the tide begins to rise.  If you wait too long like we did yesterday, the fish may be done feeding and you can’t see them through all the murk.
