Salt Pond Beach Park is listed on this site for 2 commonly-targeted species: Giant Trevally, Bonefish. Which species is currently in season and which is scoring highest today is shown in the per-species ranking on this page.
It depends more on the species and the day's conditions than on a fixed "best hour." Water temperature, weather, and — at tidal locations — the stage of the tide drive activity most. The per-species ranking on this page scores every target species at Salt Pond Beach Park against today's live conditions, so the fish near the top are your best bets right now; check back as conditions change through the day.
