It's an interesting tool, but I don't let it decide when I toss a line. Work and life seem to be the tightest constraints on my fishing.

I won't refuse to go fishing if it's not a full moon, but I will try to get out when the moon is full. I normally have better luck during the full moon, but still catch them all other times of the moon phase.

Yes i was going by the mauri charts all the time while trophy hunting for a record breaking bass. My 10lber was caught while the charts said good fishing early am. Field & stream did list these charts to go by. I finally figured out fishing by the moon phases helps too. They guys at infisherman explained this when looking for record breaking fish to fish thru the full moon phases.

I also think we have big bass in all our waters across the country. I've caught a 10lber in CT and i have seen bigger bass swim by me at the shore. The regular tornie guys are fishing the 9am to 5pm don't see these bigger bass like i do at the early am's. They are there and there very spooky and elusive. You need to be stealthy quiet. Make no noise at all. Bill
