58Good

Best window 22:00 – 00:00

Good (58) — best around ⁦22:00–00:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, moving water, a light breeze.

  • Feels like ⁦0.5°⁩ 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 41 kn around 10:00.
    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.
