Tackle, baits, spots and seasons — a full guide to catching Rainbow trout.

Quebec — Tuesday, October 20
The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued. Peak 07:00–09:00 and 18:00–19:00.
The computed water temperature is around 4 °C — colder than the 6–16 °C comfort range for Rainbow trout: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
Rainbow trout works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is dropping 1 hPa over the day — fish are usually more active ahead of a weather change.
October is an active season for Rainbow trout here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Cloudy · feels like -5°
The day is 5 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
Geomagnetic fieldG1 geomagnetic storm, Kp 4.7
Kp index — NOAA data. Not part of the bite score: catches show no link between geomagnetic storms and the bite.
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.
