It's best whever there's bait.:DI fish mostlly from the beach and the catching seems to be good when the bait is there!!I find when it's warm out mornings are better when it's cold afternoon.But that all changes when the bait starts rollin thru.Today I got a report from a friend who was at IBSP he said the bait was 2-300 yards off and there was boats.Where are you going???I suggest monitoring the reports on the bait cause if there's fish thats where they'll be.I'm headin out on a trip in November with mt favorite watering hole.Last year we followed huge bait pods from the highlands south to the deal rocks.As long as there was bait we where on fish.No bait no fish.Hope this helps.:cool:

It depends on the tide, and what side of the tide they are hitting on.
sometimes its an outging bite and that may be in the afternoon and it goes gangbusters in the afternoon but a slow pick in the morning on the incoming. At a certain time of the year the bite will be on both sides of the tide but as the season gets going it can swing either way.
It also depends where you are fishing..the ocean is best at dawn and dusk unless there is a huge school of fish gorging on bait, then its a all day deal fishing under the birds and thats tons o fun.
good luck on your trip.
