Hi All,

Give me a while and I hope to have a small article on this subject ready to go.  I have been working on something for a while but did not want to just put anything out there that might confuse everyone.

Be Back Soon, I promise.

Probably by later this evening.

Paul

Sorry it took so long but we went out for dinner and well here it is.

Click in the link below, look for the paper clip below and I hope I did not confuse everyone. 

The main thing fishing is not an exact science but if we can understand a few basic principals we should enjoy a better catch ratio.

This was put together pretty quickly I am sure I will change things around a bit once I read through it.  If you see any thing not right please let me know and I will research it before changing.

If you are wondering how to get the Moon Phases Joe posted a link I found earlier in the second reply above Good Luck.

Thanks,  Paul
