Buras tides
Predicted from Bay Pomme D'or, NOAA station 8761115, 1 miles away. In the marsh the tide does more than raise and lower the water. A falling tide pulls bait out of the ponds and through the cuts, and it decides how much water sits under a hull on the way back in. The range is small; what matters is which way it is running. Heights in feet above MLLW. Also covers Fort Jackson, Grand Bay and Buras Marina.

About Buras
Positioned deep in the Mississippi River Delta, Buras covers Fort Jackson, Grand Bay, and the bustling Buras Marina. This is an elite destination for world-class light-tackle fishing for bull redfish, waterfowl hunting in the surrounding coastal marshes, and exploring historic citrus grove heritage sites along the river road. Duck hunters and sight-fishing anglers both rely heavily on an incoming high tide; the elevated water floods the extremely shallow interior ponds of Grand Bay, providing the necessary draft for skiffs and mud boats to access the prime backwater areas where giant redfish actively hunt.
