Not true to me so far. I am going to try again this weekend, it's showing excellent.
Does anyone "deal", at all, with the Lunar tables, as in; do you believe they are right, and/or; do they help your fishing?
I don't know and thought I'd ask. Is there any truth to them? Does anyone fish by them. Is it always, really, up in the "excellent",,... when the bytizawn?

I put way more faith in the barometer.
X2 on the barometer. I know that the lunar thing can be true for somethings but not always with fishen.
Lets go soak a line. Pat
Doesn't show excellent on this one.

Kind of like Locator. I plan my out of state fishing trips by moon phases. But hope for a good barometer.
Thanks for your input, members. I'll head to the bp thread from Ark.
"Hey!,,... you're gettin' a bite over there!"
It's a tough point to prove, if you believe....you believe. Back in 2004, I went into extra detail on my daily fishing log. I made note of what the Knight Solunar Tables showed as far as the best/worse fishing times in my time zone and how my fishing that day matched up. A lot of variables come into play such as weather, fishing strange water, etc. Doing the best I could, I tried to level the field by comparing times with times I knew to be on fish. The results were a crap shoot. Sometimes they would match up, mostly they didn't. I think it was just random chance that sometimes the best fishing hit on peak times. I would have to dig up the log, but if I remember correctly, this was based on 125 trips. Nothing scientific about this........but enough to convince me not to worry about them.
I always liked the advice an old buddy of mine gave: "I fish by the calendar. If it says Saturday.......I'm going fishing!"
