Stern Rules Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I cant remember the name, but i've seen a member mentioning that he fishs using solunar calendars.Any pointers would be appreciated. It's supposed to be the best time to fish the 2 or 3 days before and after a new and full moon with the new and full moon being the best days.

The JAY Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Never had much luck using the solunar calendar as a guide. No more than on 'off' days anyway. Paid pretty close attention to it this year... But, then again, some swear by it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 It doesn't have much to do with "full moon, new moon" etc... but more to do with moon rise and moon set (activity) and that's just a small part of the equation. Get your self a book or two by John Alden Knight before you discount the solunar theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your self a book or two by John Alden Knight before you discount the solunar theories. i've been reading alot about it on the net.i guess as i practice, i will get better at it.i didnt do so bad this year fishing. my biggest probelm has been retrieval speed and patiences patience kinda disappeared when i turned 50 im not used to the speed that baitcasters have when retieveing my bait.i figure if i learn more about habitat, and how the fish are affected by weather and such, that it'll make me a better angler next spring.........can't hurt paul i wonder if they would have that book at indigo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bailey Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I've often thought that this would be interesting to investigate scientifically, but the logistics are daunting. Arranging a double-blind test would consume a lot of time and effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
