Shorthorn sculpin lives in Northwest Territories. Today's bite forecast, a day-by-day and hour-by-hour activity calendar, best time and baits.
Monday, September 7
The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is dropping — this usually boosts the bite.
Best time — 00:00–06:00 (nighttime activity).
Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom.
In clear water, natural colors work best: baited bottom rig or cut bait.
Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
The computed water temperature is around 8 °C — warmer than the -1–8 °C comfort range for Shorthorn sculpin: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.
Shorthorn sculpin feeds at night: the peak falls in the dark hours, between sunset and sunrise.
Pressure is dropping 4 hPa over the day — fish are usually more active ahead of a weather change.
September is peak season for Shorthorn sculpin here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Partly cloudy · feels like +9°
The day is 7 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
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.
