One key to smarter fishing is the level of chlorophyll. The ideal levels for different species vary and are also directly impacted by sea surface temperature (SST). I will not bore you with the details, as the relationships between chlorophyll, SST, larvae, adult baitfish, and big game species vary. Tom Hilton will be happy to discuss these relationships with you, if you have questions.
