I just found this excellent website while trying to arrange some bassfishing charters fora few guys next year Cardiff BSAC Spring & Neap Tides . You can see all the monthly curves. I have saved this website and I should print off the pages and put them on the wall .Its great to be able to see an overview of the year in this format so I figured i would share the link. Im not a numbers man and although you can see the same information on any tide chart , you cant beat a graph . Obviously Springs are springs and neaps are neaps around the globe so these are the things to consider before any trip regardless of the quarry (Is that insultingly obvious )


Curve from Neaps into Spring tides
]Im a big fan of the Upward curve from neaps to spring tides. Look at the tidal curve for September . Note the tidal curve from 12 through to 18 th of the Month. That would be a good example of the kind of tides that I try to reserve for bassfishing .



Neaps and gutless tides
Look at the tides in May - Dull as dishwater. I do however find shore fishing can be quite good during neaps . I would rather fish the middle of the neaps than fish the curve down from Springs.





Obviously this all goes out the window if its blowing force 8 gale . ****ing with rain or worse still you have been invited to a wedding . Bring on the resident experts

Cheers

.... and very handy for planning winter Cod trips

I used to like fishing because I thought it had some larger significance. Now I like fishing because it's the one thing I can think of that probably doesn't.

What kind of tides do you favour for Cod ? Ive been getting a few over the last year or so (All in depths I could have fly fished )

I think they have all been on Springs ?? Cant be sure
