Best fishing times today
Best window 08:00 – 09:00
Fair (54) — best around 08:00–09:00, thanks to moving water, dawn or dusk light, a strong tide coefficient.
- Feels like 1.0° around 08:00.
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 36 kn around 00:00.
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.
