I know issues like wind and weather are very important but I am wondering about things you can plan for?
Full Moon no moon?
High Tide or low?
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Thanks

It depends on where you're wadeing. I have enough problem getting the wind and tide on my side. I never worry about the moon.
The birds and the guides follow mr out

Best chance for Trophy Trout is 3 days either side of a full moon.
Fish every day for 17 years and ya pick this kinda stuff up.

Last month we hit Estes Flats with 2 days of 15-20 MPH wind gusts to 30 and the water was mud. 1 keeper trout.
Overnight the wind laid down to 10-15 MPH, the water cleared, and the three of us limited out on reds. Took my son out later that day he limited out in 42 minutes.
2 of us got to use our tags for nice 29 inchers.
Wishin' I was fishin', and dreaming of beer
