51Fair

Best window 08:00 – 09:00

Fair (51) — best around ⁦08:00–09:00⁩, thanks to moving water, dawn or dusk light, a comfortable water temperature.

  • Feels like ⁦1.2°⁩ around 11:00.
    Why we say thisApparent temperature combines cold and wind chill. Near freezing, exposure sets the length of a session more than the fish do.
  • Gusting 50 kn around 11:00.
    Why we say thisGusts, not average wind, are what capsize a kayak and spoil a cast. Above 30 kn most shore and small-craft fishing stops being pleasant.
