Right Tide for Flounder?

[sea nymph]

As the flounder fishing begins to heat up, which tide provides the best opportunity to catch some flatties.  I always thought out going, however, it seems like the incoming is producing fish?

[IrishAyes]

The rule of thumb is the outgoing will be the better tide. The incoming will bring with it colder water.
As I said, rule of thumb. As we all know, nothing is set in stone when it comes to fishing.
