You will also be able to find all of Gene's LakeTawakoni.com tips in the fishing tips pages of LakeTawakoni.com. December 1999 Sonar charts. Do they work? I believe in them. Are they to live and fish by? Not always, but like the old saying goes " the best time to go fishing is every chance you get." This is always my choice when it comes to fishing. As for the charts, they do work and will work to your advantage if you keep track of the major and minor fishing times. At the same time, the moon does have some effect on all living things. The weather also plays a major role. My theory is: I always wear a watch so when the bite picks up on a particular type of structure, I will check the time to keep track of when the bite started and make a note of what type of structure I was fishing. By doing this, I will know when to be on a particular spot or on a similar type of structure at the same time the next day. Another good rule of thumb is if the Moon is full your major bite will be between 10:00am and 4:00pm. On a dark Moon you can expect your bite to be early and late. As I was saying earlier, use the solunar charts to help you predict when you should be on your best fishing hole. I like the old saying "go fishing whenever you can there's always a few fish biting." Good luck and good fishing. Gene Snider Find this and many more tips and tricks at http://www.laketawakoni.com/fish/ftips.html.
