    Hourly activity

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

    The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

    Peak bite hours

    Best time — 06:00–08:00 (dawn bite) and 20:00–22:00 (dusk bite).

    Tactics

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

    Lures

    In clear water, natural colors work best: bottom jig or cut bait.

    Gear

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

    Summary

    An average day — best chances during peak windows.

    Why this forecast

    The computed water temperature is around 16 °C — warmer than the 3–9 °C comfort range for Atlantic halibut: 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.
