Sea Nun's Island strait (Quebec) — a popular fishing spot. Nearby towns: Montreal, Montreal West and Côte Saint-Luc. This is a sea water — its bite forecast is a marine one, computed apart from rivers and lakes. This page shows an hourly bite forecast for today and the week ahead; the algorithm factors in the weather, atmospheric pressure, and the moon phase.

BiteGuideFrom anglers’ reports
This is a summary of anglers' reports, not a proven cause of the bite: conditions lining up does not mean they drove it.

The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.
Best time — 05:00–08:00 (dawn bite) and 19:00–21:00 (dusk bite).
Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom.
In clear water, natural colors work best: spoon or large fly.
Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
The computed water temperature is around 12 °C — warmer than the 1–10 °C comfort range for Arctic char: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.
Arctic char works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is dropping 4 hPa over the day — fish are usually more active ahead of a weather 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.
September is peak season for Arctic char here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Clear · feels like +16°
The day is 3 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.
