I just had a look for the fishing times here on fishingreminder
Looks like the best time on the 1st for shore based fishing in the basin would be from around sunrise until about 10 am.
Or if you're inclined for some night fishing, which is always a good idea when fishing from the shore, try the second minor time starting around 6pm.
Just make sure to check the weather forecast.
I had a complaint from someone recently. He got the fishingreminder email and decided to drive a long distance to some remote fishing spot without checking the weather, just to arrive at the beach in un-fishable stormy nasty conditions.
Afterwards he reckoned that our site sucks big time, LOL.
So a reminder to everyone - the fishing times are based on the solunar theory and don't include the weather forecast.
It's up to everyone else to check the local weather and compare it with the bite times to make a decision as when to head out.
We have a local 7 day weather forecast on the front page, including wind and rain conditions.
