Flood & low finder

🌊 Biggest flood tides at Lake Montauk this month: Aug 6, Aug 7, Aug 8, Aug 9, Aug 10, Aug 11, Aug 12, Aug 13, Aug 31. These spring highs push water up into the grass and over the oyster rock — prime for poling into flooded marsh for tailing reds.

🔻 Negative (minus) low tides at Lake Montauk this month: Aug 10, Aug 11, Aug 12, Aug 13, Aug 14, Aug 15, Aug 16. These drain the flats and expose the oyster rock — prime for sight-fishing and clamming.
