Fishing Around The New Moon For Best Results

I certainly realize that you do not always have a choice of when to fish. Sometimes we have to fish when we have the time, regardless of other factors; however, you should be aware of the environmental factors that affect fishing results. One of the most important factors is the position of the moon. The solunar tables have been around for years. They predict the best and worst feeding times for fish and other animals.

Speaking from experience, I can simplify things for solunar fishing. The best times to fish are just before and just after the new moon. Generally, fishing during the morning hours for six days before the new moon, and fishing during the afternoons for six days after the new moon produces the best results. This doesn't mean you can't catch fish at other times, these are just the best feeding times.

It is easy to find out when the new moon is, just click here to view the table. In conclusion, when you have a choice, fish around the new moon for best results. In the next couple of days I'll write about other environmental factors that have an effect on fishing.
