Bass Fishing Tips n Tactics

Bass movements and moods (as well as other fish and game) have been related to changes in the Earth-Moon-Sun orientation (and therefore energy) for much of human history.  Even early hunters recognized different animal movements during different Moon phases and adjusted accordingly.

I even have to admit, when I took the time to check, bass feeding activities often seemed to coincide with major or minor solunar periods.

Following is a version of a Solunar Table for April 2010 (Astro Table) which was derived based using Moon and Sun phase information:

April 2010 Astro-Table

Meaning of the data in the columns:

• Best Days – based on position of Earth-Moon-Sun with a rating of 0-100 where the higher the number, the higher the Sun-Moon influence;
• Lunar Periods refers to the times the Moon is either overhead or underfoot on a daily basis also with a solar symbol indicating when the tow periods overlap;
• PrimeTime data based on astrophysical data and research conducted on wildlife/fish movements and activity levels.
