Good to hear Brandon!
I totally agree. I have been starting to keep a diary of our fishing trips lately, it records ambient temp, water temp, tide times, tide movement, moon phase, weather conditions, daily rainfall, wind speed and directions at 9am and 3pm, 9am and 3pm air pressures, 5 day air pressure trends, relative humidity, water clarity, location and the times of any fish action or captures....it's in it's infant stages but i'm slowly accumulating data.
Just when you think you start to see a trend emerging you get a session that completely writes your new theory off! It is really difficult to put your finger on it.
In regards to the moon phases the diary shows three good trips in the lead up to full (6, 3 and 2 days before), a mediocre trip 2 days before full, a good trip 2 days before half moon and two terrible trips (on half moon and day before half moon). I don't think this helps you though Stan as that not in New Cal
