Best window 22:00 – 00:00
Good (56) — best around 22:00–00:00, thanks to a major solunar period, dawn or dusk light, falling pressure.
- Feels like 1.5° around 14:00.
Why we say this
Apparent temperature combines cold and wind chill. Near freezing, exposure sets the length of a session more than the fish do. - Gusting 40 kn around 14:00.
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.
