Powroznik claims the best fishing times on tidal waters are usually the last three hours of the outgoing tide and the first three hours of the incoming tide.

Spring tides are very high tides and very low tides that occur during full and new moon phases, when the gravitational forces of the sun and moon combine to exert a stronger pull on the oceans.

The reach of tide on the Columbia River extends from the Pacific a little more than 100 miles from the ocean to the Gorge. This flat lower river section, which falls less than one-half foot per mile, includes Sauvie Island, one of the largest river islands in North America.

In a lunar month the highest tides occur at the time of the new moon and full moon (when the gravitational forces of the sun and moon are in line). These are called spring tides and they occur about every 14 days.

High tides occur 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. It takes six hours and 12.5 minutes for the water at the shore to go from high to low, or from low to high. Unlike a 24-hour solar day, a lunar day lasts 24 hours and 50 minutes.

Typically, the best times to fish are when the tide is “running” — that is, when it's on the move from high to low or vice versa. Once the water approaches the extremes of high or low tide, it slows down and stops moving, becoming what's known as “slack,” and the fish are less likely to bite.

This is a consequence of high tidal ranges occurring in several locations around the British Isles – three rivers with notable bores are the Severn, Dee and Mersey. However, the world's largest tidal river bore is on the Qiantang River in south-east China.

In general, fish move into an estuary area as the tide flows in. An incoming tide, or rising tide, is considered one of the best fishing tide times.

What is a very low tide called? ›

Seven days after either a full or new moon, the Earth, Moon, and Sun form a right angle, and the pull of the Moon and Sun partially cancel each other out. The resulting tide, called a "neap" tide, has the smallest difference between high and low tide.

Some areas, such as the Gulf of Mexico, have only one high and one low tide each day. This is called a diurnal tide. The U.S. West Coast tends to have mixed semidiurnal tides, whereas a semidiurnal pattern is more typical of the East Coast (Sumich, J.L., 1996; Thurman, H.V., 1994; Ross, D.A., 1995).

If you are in or close to a harbour, look to see if the water flows in or out. When the tide is rising, the water will flow into the harbour so if you know where the entrance is, observe what direction the water is heading in. If it looks like the water is moving into the harbour, the tide is coming in.

Water depths have been estimated at 1,000 feet (300 m) at Wallula Gap and 400 feet (120 m) over modern Portland, Oregon.

Tides from the Pacific Ocean affect flow in the Columbia River inland for 146 river miles and cause the main part of the Willamette River (:fig. 1), which flows into the Columbia River at mile 102, to be tide affected to Willamette Falls, which is nearly 15 miles upsteam from the center of Portland.

It's not abnormal to see whales in the Columbia. Most veer off course looking for food and eventually find their way back to the ocean. An official with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said it is uncommon to see them this far up the river.
