458.0. "Tides on the north east Jul/Aug 1995" by IOSG::breez.reo.dec.com::FREER () Mon Jul 24 1995 13:04

Hi,

I am new to this notes file, so please excuse any errors of etiquette.

I am looking for information about tides and/or tide tables for july, 
august and sept for the north east coast.

My father-in-law is taking a day off the week after next and go try for 
stripers.

He wants to know as what their are feeding on is swept in and out by the 
tides and they follow.  Looking for a tide change early morning. This way 
he'll be able to fish thru 3 changes in the day and get home around
9 PM or so.

Thanks for any info.

458.1tide tables and striped bassAOSG::HEBENSTREITMon Jul 31 1995 13:1216
    Tides vary widely depending on the location.  The best thing to do is
    get a copy of the Eldrigde Tide Guide.  It provides tide tables for
    many locations all along the east coast.  Alternatively, you can
    usually pick up tide tables at a baitshop in the area you plan to fish.
    The Fisherman magazine also has tide tables for various locations in
    the northeast starting thursday of the week that each edition is
    published thru the next 10 days or so.
    
    I suggest that you concentrate your fishing from very early morning
    (like starting around 4am) until noonish.  Its been so hot that
    evening fishing may be problematic depending on where you fish ...
    certainly evening fishing in shallow estuaries isn't liketly to be
    great if the weather stays as is.
    
    Good luck,  mark
