Good

Best window 10:00 – 12:00

Good (58) — best around ⁦10:00–12:00⁩, thanks to moving water, a major solunar period, dawn or dusk light.

Gusting 46 kn around 23:00.
Why we say this
Gusts, not average wind, are what capsize a kayak and spoil a cast. Above 30 kn most shore and small-craft fishing stops being pleasant.
