Anderson Lake (British Columbia) — a spot well known among anglers. About 29.2 km² in area. A smart bite calendar — moon phase, atmospheric pressure, and weather combined into an hourly fish-activity forecast for the coming days.
In the fish list, this icon marks species recorded here by GBIF. Unmarked species may still occur in the waterbody.
The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Weather is steady, with no sharp swings — fish behave predictably.
Best time — 07:00–09:00 (dawn bite) and 20:00–22:00 (dusk bite).
Look for drop-offs and gaps in the weeds, retrieve slowly, lingering over promising spots.
In clear water, natural colors work best: small jig or minnow bait.
Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore.
An average day — best chances during peak windows.
The computed water temperature is around 9 °C — colder than the 14–24 °C comfort range for Black crappie: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
Black crappie works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is dropping 7 hPa over the day — fish are usually more active ahead of a weather change.
One more input — the moon's feeding windows: within their hours the score sits higher than across the rest of the day. The window times are in the “Solunar feeding periods” card below.
September is an average month for Black crappie here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Clear · feels like +9°
The day is 4 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
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.
What are solunar periods?Recorded 12 catches here. Most commonly caught: Sockeye salmon. Peak season: May–December.
