Best Time to Fish (According to Solunar Theory)

[@goldschmidtcompany431]

Excellent explanation

[@vizionsys]

Excellent, for once I learned something. Just curious now if these minor and majors interchange between am and pm hours.

Not sure what you mean, but they don’t always happen at the same time every day, if that’s what you mean.

Never payed attention to the lunar stuff but I have noticed while musky fishing at some point in the middle of the day the musky would become really active for a short period, seeing or maybe catching multiple within like 30 minutes. I've wondered if it was tied to the cycle but just never followed up to see if the times aligned. Then there's the dusk bite for various species but I feel that is really just tied to the sun setting. (And the morning bite too I guess but I'm over getting up before the sun to go fishing)

[@thegreatlakesfisherman]

They definitely binge at times, so I hear you there. Some folks swear by it.

​@thegreatlakesfisherman I usually encounter a mid-afternoon lull in the bite but I've always been taught to go by the sun that if it's cool enough fish will feed all morning until they need rest after noon and bite again before dusk. Catfish will sometimes fire up later on

[@Bazilli]

@calebz1448 With other fish species I agree, I just notice with musky they can turn on for a bit at some point mid day and it sticks out because musky are much harder to catch than anything else I fish for. But yeah, probably every other fish species there's some midday window (and it can be a big window where you're wondering why the hell you're even out there) where the fishing isn't great. And of course that window may actually exist for musky too, but like I said, those periods where they are very active midday stick out for me. Some days you feel like just seeing one.
