What is a bite calendar?

Hourly activity

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

The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 00:00–05:00 and 23:00–23:00 (nighttime activity).

Tactics

Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.

Lures

In clear water, natural colors work best: live-bait bottom rig or bunch of worms.

Gear

Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly.

Summary

A slow day — go only if you really feel like it.

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 13 °C — warmer than the 0–8 °C comfort range for Burbot: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.

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.
