The current runs fastest roughly halfway between a high and a low tide. Many anglers prefer those hours when they fall near sunrise or sunset. This is a rule of thumb, not a fishing forecast.

From NOAA CO-OPS, the U.S. government tide station network (tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov); the predictions are public domain. Catalina Harbor, Santa Catalina Island is a subordinate station: NOAA derives its times and heights from the reference station Los Angeles (Outer Harbor) with fixed corrections. The curve between highs and lows is our interpolation. This page is not for navigation.
