    The day is 4 min shorter than yesterday.

    Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.

    Solunar feeding periods

    The windows are set by the moon's transit and rise, and the forecast above already accounts for them: within these hours the bite score sits higher than across the rest of the day, while the day's overall level still comes from the catch-calibrated model.

    Recommendations

    Tactics

    Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses. The water's cold — fish it more delicately and slowly.

    Lures

    In clear water, natural colors work best: spinner or small crankbait. The water's cold — work the lure slower than usual.

    Gear

    Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore.
