So what joyed the video and definitely understand the theory but, since it’s heavily based on current flow… how do you look at the aerial photo and know which way the current flows? Particular in a marsh system? Is there a current layer I haven’t found in the SmartFish app?

Hey Luke – great content as always. In terms of the positioning video, how do you position yourself on an island depending on the winds? I know you mentioned that you want the wind to your back to increase casting distance, but will fish usually hold on the side of an island where the wind is hitting or the protected side? I suppose this also depends on time of year and water temps, but would love to know the feedback on which side of an island to approach first, given wind conditions in terms of the 90/10 rule.

Hey Luke,
I just wanted to say that these lessons are so undervalued at what we’re paying and appreciated. What an outstanding company you and Joe have created. For us who can’t spend countless hours on the water to learn and experience the things you bring to us members is extremely valuable.
Thank you guys,
Brad

Hi Luke,
Great info, thanks. I have a question that’s probably been asked and answered however, I haven’t been able to find it. I fish the Halifax, and I’d like to be able to estimate high and low tides at various points along the river that are away from a known tide station. The two known stations nearest to the places I fish are Ormond Beach/Halifax, and Ponce Inlet/Halifax. Since there’s some miles between these stations, it would be nice to be able to closely estimate the tides at a few additional points along the river – for instance around the Port Orange Bridge. I understand there are many things in the river that influance tide movement, but it seems like someone has taken those into account and produced a table or a calculation based on distances from a given tide station.

Thanks again,

joe
