Ok, I'm going out to the CBBT tomorrow "Wed.". My question is this: high tide is around 1050am Low tide is around 5:20pm.
The eairliest I can get out on the water is 1:00pm will I have missed the current enough to not even bother going to the 3rd or 4th island, Or should I just go to Kipote. and troll the deep channel there until low tide and then head to the high rise. I'll have eels w/bobbers and can troll mojos and what ever else. What would you do???

Current is what you want. Here is a link to a site that will tell you current for the mouth of the bay. I have found that it is fairly accurate for the CBBT.

So when the current really isn't on,,,, is that when I should just start trolling,,, how do you fish for them when the current isn't running? Cuz, accourding to the site you sent to me, looks like I'll be gettin on the water near "slack" tide....

Just go out a little later or wait! If anyone could figure the tides out we would be millionaires.

Max flood (current) is just after noon-time tomorrow--should be good to go for a few hours thereafter. Me, I am going to the ships around 11:00 a.m. to dunk some eels.
