53Fair

Best window 11:00 – 12:00

Fair (53) — best around ⁦11:00–12:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, falling pressure, a comfortable water temperature.

  • Feels like ⁦0.3°⁩ around 23:00.
    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 47 kn around 23:00.
    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.
