Fishing in Marine Corps Base Hawaii - MCBH: FAQ

When is the best time to fish in Marine Corps Base Hawaii - MCBH today?

Today's strongest bite window in Marine Corps Base Hawaii - MCBH is 10:18 AM to 12:18 PM (full moon). The overall bite score is 90/100 β€” excellent. Major feeding periods follow the moon's overhead and underfoot passes; minors follow moonrise and moonset.

What are major and minor feeding periods?

Solunar theory holds that fish feed most actively when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 hours) and around moonrise and moonset (minor periods, about 90 minutes). Windows that overlap sunrise or sunset are historically the strongest.

Does weather change the bite in Marine Corps Base Hawaii - MCBH?

Yes. A falling barometer ahead of a front typically triggers heavy feeding, while a sharp rise after a front slows it. Light wind that ripples the surface and cloud cover both extend feeding activity. Our daily score combines these factors with the solunar calendar.
