🌊 Biggest flood tides at San Simeon this month: Sep 6, Sep 7, Sep 8, Sep 9, Sep 10, Sep 28, Sep 29, Sep 30. 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 San Simeon this month: Sep 6, Sep 7, Sep 8, Sep 9, Sep 10. These drain the flats and expose the oyster rock, prime for sight-fishing and clamming.
