You don’t have to be an expert to catch big fish. But timing helps. Here’s when we usually see the most action—and why it matters.

1. Early Morning = Cool Water + Hungry Fish

We leave early for a reason. Fish are more active just after sunrise when the water’s cooler. They’re hunting, and they’re less spooked. That’s the sweet spot.

2. Midday Gets Hot—and Slower

By noon, the sun is up, the heat sets in, and fish start to slow down. You might still get bites, but it takes more effort. That’s when we move spots, change tactics, or drop deeper.

3. Late Afternoon Can Be a Surprise

Some days, the bite picks back up as the sun drops again. It’s hit or miss—but when it hits, it hits hard. Afternoon trips are quieter too, which some people prefer.

4. Tides Matter More Than Time

Time of day helps, but tides run the show. Tncoming tide? Good. Outgoing tide? Can be good. No tide? Slow. We always check tides before we go and adjust plans based on what’s moving.

5. You Don’t Need to Overthink It

We handle the timing, gear, and planning. You just show up ready to fish. And if the bite’s slow? We’ll chase it down.
