Day

No live gauge this hour — the printed tide is the forecast.

Where

  • East Bay reefs / Hanna's · 7.2oyster reef on a high slack tide is a workable match.
  • West Bay grass · 6.6grass flat on a high slack tide is a workable match.
  • Christmas Bay · 6.6grass flat on a high slack tide is a workable match.

Day

low

Giant trevally should be the day — the lagoon sand, then the passes if the GT are up. Work the leeward shore — fly gets harder.

22 mph SE · incoming

Where

  • Farquhar passes · 7.8pass jetty on a incoming tide is a classic match.
  • Farquhar lagoon · 7.3hard flat on a incoming tide is a classic match.
