55Good

Best window 22:00 – 00:00

Good (55) — best around ⁦22:00–00:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, dawn or dusk light, falling pressure.

  • Feels like ⁦1.1°⁩ around 15:00.
    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 38 kn around 15:00.
    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.
