Can anyone give me the lowdown on the tides this afternoon on the shoals or around 13/16?

ie - when are the slack and peak tides?

Thanks

I hope someone will give you a good answer and I would like to know for tuesday...

I do know that you can't go by the chart for kiptopeke which shows high tide at 10:09
and low tide at 16:03....the last time I used this chart I think it was off several hours...

if you go let us know what the times are on the current....

Martin,

That's a good one for tides but a better this one is the one that shows the currents.

Thanks guys...bagged the trip and went strawberry picking with Mom and kids instead. Did not have anyone else who could go and voted against trying to do the anchor and all solo.

Next week...there's always next week :)

That was probably a good thing, it was blowing pretty good today! We bagged our day after attempting one drift on the western side of the bay!

Sorry you had to bag your trip Glenn. I should be ready to go in one more week.
Call me when you need "Current Information" I have a program on the computer that is pretty accurate:yes:
