Tides in Wexford

#1 Post by johnnyf »

Hi Lads lookin for a bit of help, I went fishin in the courtown area yesterday, and thought I got the tides right as per Easytide and fished 2 hours 12:00 to 2:00 and not a bite, it appears the tide was not into high tide as per Easytide, has anybody else had problems with that or are the tides in Wexfor different?? :cry: :?

Howdy easytide can be slightly off with tides also the GMT mightn't allow for summer time with it... for accurate times see here http://www.sailing.ie/inside/default.asp?pageId=506 see this link for tide variations on Dublin http://www.sailing.ie/dynamic/pdf/Varia ... tables.pdf
