Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason. The water's cold — fish it more delicately and slowly.
British Columbia — Tuesday, October 20
The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued. Peak 00:00–05:00.
The computed water temperature is around 3 °C — colder than the 10–18 °C comfort range for White sturgeon: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
Going by this year's frosts the ice hasn't formed yet: the season says it should have, but it hasn't been cold enough. This is an estimate from the weather across the whole region, not a measurement on your water.
White sturgeon feeds at night: the peak falls in the dark hours, between sunset and sunrise.
Pressure is flat: it moves no more than 1 hPa over the day, so the weather isn't shifting today's bite.
October is an active season for White sturgeon here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Clear · feels like -1°
The day is 4 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
Geomagnetic fieldG1 geomagnetic storm, Kp 4.7
Kp index — NOAA data. Not part of the bite score: catches show no link between geomagnetic storms and the bite.
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.
