Default Sal****er Tides - Predicting best fishing times

Anyone here have the experience or skills to help interpret tide tables? I am looking at planning a trip to the Pt. Hardy area and want to use the tide tables to time it for good fishing times.
Looking to know what would be the best time in the month of July and the best time of day for a 2-3 day stretch?

Mostly for chinook but also halibut. Do I fish high tide, low tide, look for the biggest tide change or the smallest?

Thanks.

Here is the tide charts for the entire Canada west coast. What you want to do is run through the chart and pick out the area that you want to fish in and pick the Highest tide for the month. Of course this is not a guarantee that you will nail them but it definitely is one more added advantage. Again pick the highest tide for the month,, think of it as a river flooding a pool what it does is bring in the bait which in turn brings in the fish ,,, pretty simple eh ??? Lololol
