Darrell Bay (British Columbia) — a spot well known among anglers. About 1 ha in area. Nearest town — Squamish. A coastal water: the bite here is modelled for the sea, not for a river or a lake. This page shows an hourly bite forecast for today and the week ahead; the algorithm factors in the weather, atmospheric pressure, and the moon phase.

Hourly activity

0:006:0012:0018:0023:00
Bite activity:highmediumlow

The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. A thunderstorm is possible: activity rises before the front and drops after.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 07:00–09:00 (dawn bite) and 20:00–22:00 (dusk bite).

Tactics

Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom.

Lures

The water's turning murky — go with bright, noisy lures: spinner or small crankbait.

Gear

Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly. A thunderstorm is possible — bring a rain jacket, and pack up at the first rumble of thunder.

Summary

An average day — best chances during peak windows.

How this forecast is calculated

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 9 °C — inside the 6–17 °C comfort range for Brown trout, so baseline activity is high.

Brown trout works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.

The day: daylight hours and when Brown trout feeds0:0012:0024:00

Pressure is dropping 3 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.

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.
