Best fishing times at Cape May, Atlantic Ocean
Solunar bite windows for today and tomorrow, in local time: major periods (about 2 hours) when the moon is overhead or underfoot, minor periods (about an hour) around moonrise and moonset. A window with the tide turning inside it is the classic pick. Tomorrow's best bet is 5:54 AM–7:54 AM: the moon underfoot, with the low tide turning at 7:24 AM. Solunar timing is folk wisdom more than science, so treat it as a tiebreaker alongside wind, light and what the fish are doing.
| Day | Major periods | Minor periods |
|---|---|---|
| Saturday, October 17 | 5:05 AM–7:05 AM · low tide 6:28 AM5:32 PM–7:32 PM · low tide 7:50 PM | 1:22 PM–2:22 PM · high tide 1:16 PM |
