Tides
No, ebb tide is outgoing - neap tide is rising.
Fish are much affected by the tides both ebb and neap.
A simplistic answer is that the tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun. During the lunar orbit around the earth, spring tides travel high up the beach, and ebb far down the beach. Neap tides only travel part way up the beach, and ebb part way down the beach.
A low tide is often refered to as an "ebb" tide.
