I was on the Channel last weekend around Coon Island and got into a pretty good shad bite around noon (fair Chinook bite between 5 and 7 am). I believe the low tide was right around noon. This weekend the tides are much flatter and just about the opposite from a timing standpoint (high tide is around noon). So will the shad fishing be worth a hoot? I need to take a couple of youngsters and don't want to get their hopes too high or possibly change weekends if the the chances are slim. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'd say take them out...if there's current..there's decent shad fishing...if the shad aren't biting..the sturgeon will.
