Thanks to Jack Payne of
Solunar Services, Inc.
in Rushville, IN. 46173, for these Hunting and Fishing Tables. They are calibrated for the
Latitude/Longitude midway between Tower and Cook. The times will change + or - one
minute for every 12 miles east or west of the base point.
Jack has been an annual visitor to the
lake since 1953 and a summer resident (Ely Island) since 1976. He's used his own
tables for the lake, saying night fishing during a full moon when there is a Solar
period in progress is the best, and has personal logs to bear him out.
The key to accurate Hunting and Fishing Times is the
ability to chart the relative solar and lunar positions with respect to a particular
location. The major periods coincide with the upper and lower meridian passage of
the resultant gravitational force. They occur when these forces are at 0 and 180
degrees apart. The minor periods occur when these forces are rising or setting
either horizon.
Good fishing and let us know how you do!
