The "Best" times to fish are whenever you can. Keep a diary and note everything. In about 5 years you will see patterns that dont change. Dont let the tide, weather, moon or anything else put you off. Recording a "no catch" day in your diary is valuable and you have still had a day out. Approach every outing with enthusiasm and confidence and dont give up till you have to. Good luck with your endevours and dont hesitate to ask on here for help. Between us all we are awesome.
