Still learning, but i believe water movement (tidal or drainage choke points) and salinity (lack of freshwater influx) is crucial. Other than time on the water and sharing info to get info from better fishermen, i use google earth alot, and the stuff below..
Like most guys, i fish when i have time, so if its safe and im not tied up, im going.
tides4fishing.com (see below) is one resource i use, it includes solunar, tides, weather, wind, everything really.

For when i am on the water and those sudden summer storms are around, the very best ive found is the RadarScope app ($10).
The thing i look at most when planning is salinity (see below)
