Atlantic cod

3/10 · Weak

Hourly activity

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

The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Pressure is dropping — this usually boosts the bite.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 20:00–21:00 (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: pirk or lugworm bottom rig.

Gear

Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.

Summary

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

How this forecast is calculated

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 16 °C — warmer than the 4–12 °C comfort range for Atlantic cod: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.

Atlantic cod 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 Atlantic cod feeds0:0012:0024:00

Pressure is rising 5 hPa over the day — the bite usually settles down after a rise.

Pressure through the day, 5 hPa 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.

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.
