Question on Bay Tides...

So I'm two seasons into fishing the bay, and I've had spotty luck on the stripers and halibut. Sometimes WFO on stripers, still scratching for a flattie. I'm looking at the tides this weekend and they look really moderate. I've picked up from the board, etc. that the less radical tides can be better for flatties (less murk?), while the stripers can get turned on by big tides if they're hanging on structure. Anyone have any other pearls of wisdom that might help me direct my attentions this weekend? Looking for a nice long 6 hour session on the water. Haven't chosen between ARW, Brickyard and Paradise ...

In general, strong tidal = murky water --> think Sturgeon.  Weak tide = clearer water (unless it's raining hard days before) --> think Halibut.  Stripers don't care about water condition    I would try ARW for the Hali since I haven't heard much action in Paradise yet, but it could change any days now...Good lucks Greg.

for halibut specifically you should anticipate your prime window of time to be the turn of the tides, say an hour and a half before the high until an hour and a half into the outgo. know that the outgo kicks up mud on the flats turns the water into choco milk, no good for halibut. as sailfish said weak tide = clearer water = halibut.

not specifically on tides, but you could add time of year to this mix, and the qty of fresh water entering the system. hallie's don't like freshwater- stripers don't care too much.
paradise is right in the outflow, as is red rock, ARW not so much.

Brickyard isn't really known as a halibut hot spot- but there's afew here and there at the channel edge.
