Current

[Curapa]

I usually do not fish the reefs when there is a large change in tides "spring tide". Take a look at the tide chart, try to avoid reef fishing on days with a large fluctuation from low to high tide. On the spring tide days I usually try to find some slow clean water inshore.

On a spring tide there is way more water flowing making it hard to anchor and the amount of weight need to get straight down is ridiculous.
