This is the traditional solunar table. Major periods are the two hours around the Moon passing overhead and underfoot; minor periods are the hour around moonrise and moonset. Days near a new or full moon are rated best. The times are calculated precisely, but the theory that fish feed more at these times has limited scientific support, so treat it as a guide alongside weather, water temperature and tides.
