Fishing Calendar Explained...

Some say the best day to fish is any day you can cast a line in the water! Yet experience does show that there are certain dates and times when fish tend to be more active, thus making the fishing better. The Farmers' Almanac Fishing Calendar is based on the phase of the moon, the zodiac sign of the moon, and experience over many years.
