It seems like there are far more fishers out when the sun and moon align, causing greater tidal swings, than when the tides and sun/moon phases are not optimal.
I’d like to know how much you adjust your fishing times based on these “solunar” activity predictions.
Thanks for participating!

(5/22/15) After 3 weeks and a total of 70 votes, it’s still neck and neck between those that check the tides but don’t worry about the solunar activity too much, and those that fish when time allows. The poll will close at the end of May. Get your vote in!
(5/5/15) In less than a week there have been 33 responses to this poll. 14 check the tides but don’t worry about the solunar activity so much, another 14 just fish when they have the time. Just 2, so far, only fish when the activity is high. To see how others have responded, click the “View Results” link on the poll.
I do plan my fishing trips this way. I am pretty busy during the week, so I use the Android app Fishing and hunting solunar Time to get the best time to go fish, then try and plan around it. At least when I do make it out, I know I will have better chances! If I had more time on my hands though-I’d just go whenever.
Hi Jose,
Sounds like an efficient way to optimize your limited fishing time.
thanks,
scott
i don’t go when the conditions are like dat bro!
