How we calculate this →

53Fair

Best window 12:00 – 13:00

Fair (53) — best around ⁦12:00–13:00⁩, thanks to moving water, dawn or dusk light, a light breeze.

  • Feels like ⁦0.3°⁩ around 09:00.
    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 40 kn around 09:00.
    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.
