Any of you gewbers believe in them? I have a neighbor who swears by the peak times for hunting and fishing. I was pulling cranks yesterday, from around 9:00 till 1:30 or so. The fish started biting better at around 1:00. The solar table said peak feeding time was from 12:45 til 2:45. The wind was so bad I drained my trolling motor batteries at 1:30. Out of my 16 fish, I caught 8 of them between 1:00 and 1:30.
There must be something to it.
I believe in them, but think you also have to factor in the weather conditions also. When I was real serious about Bass fishing found them to be real close. One factor I think that played into it also was I found that I concentrated more during those periods expecting the bite to turn on. If nothing else it can increase your confidence level.
I don't pay any attention to em I go when I can and besides I didn't know there was crappie on the moon.
Yes sir. I've got a buddy that swears by them, last year he and I were deer hunting and it said peak times were 11:30-2:30 (middle of the day) so I stayed in the stand for a long day. Saw three separate bucks after noon and killed my biggest to date standing over a scrape just at 2:00.
us working gewbers can't go by them--got to fish when we can :)
My neighbor has an aquarium and says if he feeds his fish during the peak times by the solar table they eat like sharks. He said he's tested it with his aquarium several times. I know there's a lot of factors that effect wildlife, length of days, barometric pressure, ect.
I'm not totally convinced, but I need all the help I can get. Lol
If you have an IPhone, I would suggest Isolunar
One thing I've noticed is that on a full moon, the best time to fish for those big ole Stripers no Barnett is from noon til 2. Most times it's earlier in the day
Yes
I use the solar table , and it works, been useing them deer hunting for several yrs.
Do they work for hunting big foots?
Got a buddy that swears by it,i go when I can and usually catch more than he does.
Myself I think the Moon matters for Bluegills Bedding
the table was correct Sunday when I caught the short fish...
I look at the cows--if they are moving the fish are biting--if they are laying down--your waiting your time:)

I think he really didn't won't to go fishing that day. when I tried that method 1 field they would b eating, the next field they would b laying down :banghead I've been studying barometric pressure and i've noticed above 30 go below 30 don't go Sat. it was 29.65 and the only chance I had to go and only caught 2 and fished hard. [ found fish and they just wouldn't bit.] so maybe I got it figured out. Whos knows.Quote:

Thought I would post this. You can add it to favorites on your pc Just add zip and species and wait a second. Solunar Calendar

Time2Hunt is a good one for the smartphones too, may have already mentioned it but was too lazy this morning to look back and see. Got to get my sorry self up and go to the lake, Nader been hollering for me for a month, time to try it.:biggrin
must be nice to have the ability to pick and choose the days you go. Us working stiffs just get to go when we can.
