theonienguyen, what kind of fish ? -- Sunday, 29 Aug 2010
alsepo, Hello from Madang -- Tuesday, 24 Aug 2010
From Madang, Papua New Guinea. I'm a not very succesful shore flyfisherman, and I'm very glad to discover this site with quite acurate tide and fishing timeing infos.
Do you also know wich is the best tide for squid?

jerome, sunrise -- Tuesday, 17 Aug 2010
i just stick for sunrise.this site is not accurate for our local areas here at Abu Dhabi, for summer seasons i stayed only for 1-2 hrs. fishing coz the weather here is extremely hot. waiting til winter comes.
Dena, UAE fishing -- Tuesday, 17 Aug 2010
I was surprised to hear you're catching this time of year! I wasn't going to start again until Sept, but I'm thinkin I may do a trip even sooner :)
I wanted to ask...do you use the timings from this website? I'd like to know how accurate they are. BEcause everyone else in UAE seems to stick to sunrise and sunset only...
Thanks

markt, removing fishing locations from list -- Tuesday, 10 Aug 2010
At the moment its not possible to manually remove a location from your list. But since you can only add 10 locations, older locations will be dropped automatically when you attempt to add more.
That way you can reorganize your list by having the important ones at the top.

Bloodyspurs, unknown fish! -- Tuesday, 13 Jul 2010
If its making that strange grunting sound, its a spotted grunter. If not and you check the teeth which is molar like its definitely a sea bream-which is abundant here in AUH.Usually roming around sand flats. I caught two species of bream one time, when I cleaned them I saw crushed shell in their gut,thats why the molar like teeth...keep fishing to all!!!

jerome, catching salay-salay -- Wednesday, 7 Jul 2010
buy sabiki,(fishing shops) 6 or 8 hooks in 1 line.just cast and retrieve, it should be moving so salay salay and queenfish will get attracted of the shiny color,it bites as a group.tawilis is for cobia,hamour,and talakitok just leave it under the sea (stationary).

Mark, re: tide times -- Monday, 24 May 2010
The tides might differ by a couple of minutes for some stations cause the calculation is based on estimation. The official weather sites will have the most accurate data. But for fishing purposes the estimated tide times should be good enough.
The best fishing times will change the further east or west you go. Most accurate fishing times will be displayed when you select your exact location on the map (My Location Tab).

markt, re: fishing in dubai -- Thursday, 18 Mar 2010
At the moment we got some good day ratings because of new moon conditions. That means that fishing is normally better then usual - if fish are present. But if you can't catch many fish maybe there are just no fish swimming around at your spot at the moment. Perhaps you could try to use some berly to attract them from further away, if they are scattered around. There might be other factors such as seasonal changes or water temperature driving fish into other regions.

Mark, weather forecast -- Saturday, 14 Nov 2009
Thanks for your comment. I'm afraid there is not much I can do about the accuracy of the weather forecast. I don't produce the weather forecast, it comes from weatherbug. I've found it quite accurate for most places in the world. But for some locations it might not always produce the best results. The only thing I could think of, is to provide the option to choose from alternative weather providers in the future, such as yahoo weather for example.

Andrew, Daylight Savings -- Sunday, 4 Oct 2009
This is a great site, I don't know what you use to get the ratings and major times but when I first saw it I doubted it because it predicted the major time to be at the middle of the day during dead low tide period however when fishing, the fish really started to pick up at that time! Amazing.
Just a question, I live in Adelaide, South Australia. Just wondering we have just entered daylight savings period, does the major and minor time predictions take that into account? Or do I have to add an extra hour onto it such as reading a tide guide?
Regards

Mark, re: fishing report -- Tuesday, 25 Aug 2009
Mark, re: fishing weather -- Tuesday, 25 Aug 2009
The Major and Minor Times tell you at what time of the day you can find the best action for that particular day.
But if other factors such as weather, water temperature, water visibility, etc are not favorable, then this will most likely offset the effects of the Solunar Periods. When the water is too cold or too warm fish tend to be lethargic and inactive even during the predicted feeding periods.
So in short the best fishing times will give you a good indication of when its a good time to be on the water, but you will also need to consider all other factors - especially weather conditions before making your decision of when to go fishing.
Pastor, Fishing report -- Friday, 21 Aug 2009
randy, thanks -- Friday, 21 Aug 2009
John McGregor, Welcome -- Thursday, 20 Aug 2009
Mark, -- Thursday, 20 Aug 2009
According to the Solunar Theory (by John Alden Knight), the major and minor times will apply to any fish. In fact they will even work for any other animals. Many people use Solunar Tables for bird watching and hunting. Animals tend to be more active during these times because their feeding schedule is closely related to the moon cycle - which in return is the basis for the calculation of the best feeding times.

Mark, re: poor day after new moon -- Tuesday, 18 Aug 2009
Thanks for bringing that up. It must be a bug when matching the days. I will fix it as quick as possible. That day should definitely have a good day rating.

Mark, re: Maori Fishing Calendar -- Thursday, 13 Aug 2009
thanks for your feedback. I think there are a few different versions of the maroi fishing calendar out there. I've been using the day ratings from an old fishing book that was written by Bill Hohepa. Thats probably why there are slight differences to the calendar you mentioned. I have written the algorithms that calculate the best fishing times myself.
bredug, Feedback -- Thursday, 13 Aug 2009
I was comparing your daily ratings with the "Rothery's maori fishing calandar" published in a local fishing mag here and the correlation was very close except for the odd few days which contradicted...e.g. New Moon is good on here but only fair on rothery's... sany thoughts as to why this may be? (In no way a critisism, just trying to understand it all).
Did you write the algorithim's yourself?
thanks

mark, re: moon calendar -- Friday, 7 Aug 2009
The difference between the 30 day fishing forecast and the moon calendar is that the moon calendar shows you what day rating fishing reminder assigns to each day of the moon phase starting with day 1 = new moon. Currently it is using the maori fishing calendar.
On the 30 day forecast those day ratings are matched to the actual days of the current month.
In other words the moon calendar tab serves only as a reference, while the fishing forecast gives you the concrete predictions per date.
Hope that makes sense.
Fab, star rating -- Thursday, 6 Aug 2009
Just wondering why under different tabs ie: moon calendar or 30 day forecast or today's fishing their seems to be different amount of stars for the same day... I'm just wondering if I am reading this wrong ?
Thank you and fantastic site by the way all the info is there " the only thing is if I could suggest something is adding a link for wave buoys or wave heights for that day .... "
Great work keep it up
Nova, i think it works! -- Friday, 31 Jul 2009

Very impressive!
If I could make one suggestion it would be the option to only have reminders sent if the best fishing days fall on certain days (such as weekends)
That way we don't get as depressed when we are at work and it's glassed out on the reef and all other signs are perfect ;-)

Mark, re: New moon date downunder -- Monday, 13 Jul 2009
Fishing Reminder calculates the Moon Phase for each day at midnight, to keep the predictions consistent throughout the day.
That means at 00:00, Wed 22 July the moon illumination is still at 1%.
Therefore the 0% illumination is shown for Thursday instead of Wednesday.
I don't think this is a problem, because all days around new moon have
a similar high day rating - so it won't alter the prediction for best days to go fishing.
But thanks for bringing this to my attention. I will investigate a bit further into this issue.
PS: I'm glad you had such great fishing results - thanks for sharing.

mark, Re: Question -- Wednesday, 24 Jun 2009
Thanks for your question.
The best fishing times are calculated area specific - depending on your latitude and longitude, local time and timezone.
Initially your location is auto-detected from your IP address.
You can then always pinpoint your exact location on the map and the times will adjust.
Times are calculated on the server from moonrise/set, sunrise/set, moonphase, tidestatation, etc.
check out this article
There I tried to explain how things work.

I'd like to thank you for the effort, I try to arrange my trips according to site rating, However not yet confirmed with the results as winds affects fishing so much.

Nigel, Email reminder -- Monday, 18 May 2009
This looks a great site I am sure it will be of help to lots of anglers.
The only problem I am having is trying to set the email reminder.
I am probably doing something wrong. I am selecting all the check boxes for best times and the good and excellent check boxes for day rating. Then setting the reminder for 2 days and 1 day and clicking save changes but nothing seems to happen.
When I log back in all the settings are defaulted. What am I doing wrong?
Cheers
Nigel.
Mark, Star Ratings -- Sunday, 17 May 2009
Thanks for your comment.
Check out this Article.
I hope that will answer your questions.
Additionally have a look at the Moon Calendar Tab.
It shows you the current ratings that I'm using for each day of the mooncycle.
Those are based on the Maori fishing calendar.

Great site! and an original idea. I was just curious as to what the star rating bases its scores on and how the times are generated? What variables are the scores dependent on?

Mark, Tides -- Saturday, 16 May 2009
Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you like my site.
The Tide predictions on the BBC Site are probably more correct.
I'm using a program called xtide to calculate tides based on harmonic data.
So the tides here are just rough estimates.
I found that they are quiet accurate for most tide stations around the world, but not for all.
Don't rely on the tide times here, but rather take them as rough guidelines to accompany the best times for your location.
Cheers

simplybob, tide times -- Saturday, 16 May 2009
will try and fish on best times
the tide table for newport gwent wales
your tide table is 40 minutes different to the bbc weather site ? which is more accurate

Mark, Howto Save The Home Postion -- Tuesday, 12 May 2009
If you log in and select your location it will be automatically saved.
And the next time you visit this site, your home position will be selected and shown by default.
Just remember to select the "remember me" checkbox next time you log in.
That way you don't have to type in your details each time you come to this site and you can always quickly see the best times for your location.
Cheers

Mark, Update -- Sunday, 3 May 2009
The units for your location will be auto-detected by default.
In case the auto-detection fails, you can click on "imperial" or "metric" to choose what you prefer.
Your selection will be remembered the next time you visit this site.
Mark, Temperature -- Sunday, 3 May 2009
I completely forgot that you guys use farenheit over there :-)
I will provide an American Standard as quick as possible.
Cheers and happy fishing.
