59Good

Best window 10:00 – 12:00

Good (59) — best around ⁦10:00–12:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, falling pressure, a light breeze.

  • Feels like ⁦-0.2°⁩ around 22:00.
    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 22:00.
    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.
