We have added a moon phase module on the request of a few members.

Personally I don't really follow the moon phase but I know a few of us do so thats why its been added.

Please vote on the poll and tell us what you think about fishing to moon phases.

Its on upper right hand on every page, its a javascript module so you need java enabled in your browser.

I've been keeping an eye on this but haven't noticed any real correlation between moon phase and fish yet.

I wonder if those that think this is relevant might tell us how, what phases of the moon are good, and bad for fishing? Evidence? Oh and please, none of that waxing gibbous stuff, as most of us would have to look up what it means. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

now i was given information regarding this full moons and new moons are best and 1st quarter and 3rd quater but there is a lot more to it.there are plenty of moon calenders on the net,have you tried googling moon phases and fish ?

I can fiully understand the moon having an effect on tidal waters, estuaries and the sea, especially because the full and new moons are linked to tidal maxima and minima, but other effects, other than the amount of light at night are going to be very much insignificant in freshwater...IMHO.

So I'll align myself with the codswallop theory I think.
