On a rising tide......it is more like the ship channel is "blocked" creating a dam like effect. When the ship channel is "blocked" the water upstream has no where to go so the lake level starts to rise.
When the tide shifts to a falling tide.....then it is more like a "bath tub" effect.....and the water drains out.

On a hard fast moving tide I would agree...but a steady incoming will move...and up North you will notice the movement in Turnners bays.. you will get a push from Texaco or straight up West bank.
Falling tide will move everywhere.....
