Sea

Hourly activity

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

The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 07:00–09:00 (dawn bite) and 21:00–23:00 (dusk bite).

Tactics

Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom. The water's cold — fish it more delicately and slowly.

Lures

The water's turning murky — go with bright, noisy lures: pirk or cut bait. The water's cold — work the lure slower than usual.

Gear

Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.

Summary

Worth going — it's a productive day.

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 7 °C — warmer than the -1–6 °C comfort range for Greenland cod: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.

Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.

Major periodsMinor 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.
