Subject: Moon Phase with past log book


Can anybody tell me where I could find information on moon phases? I’m going through my old log book and it would be interesting to find out what the moon was doing at the time of catch. I've tired weather underground they don't have a lot of information in regards to the moon. However I did find something interesting on a week trip to Canada during a full moon period. We caught more fish during Nautical Twilight (sunset) than we did during Moon rise/set! To me I found this interesting any one else have any similar experiences?

MHM has a 'moon secrets' section on their website that will list all the events.

Here's another good one.

http://sunrisesunset.com/usa/

Just select the state you want and you can pull up all the data for any calendar month - past, future or present.

Shawn- I also use sunrisesunset.com. If you want real accurate times go to Google Earth- zoom in on the lake and get the latitude and longitude. Then you can do a custom moon chart for that location.

Have fun!

If I where to pick an hour to fish on the LOTWs it would be the last hour of daylight. Much more consistant than anything to do with the moon.

Doug I would have to agree with you. Looking at it more in depth I've caught more fish at last light compared to the moon phase.
