63Good

Best window 09:00 – 11:00

Good (63) — best around ⁦09:00–11:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, dawn or dusk light, moving water.

  • Feels like ⁦1.1°⁩ around 04:00.
    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 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.
