Thrasher Bay (Yukon) — a popular fishing spot. About 76 ha in area. This is a sea water — its bite forecast is a marine one, computed apart from rivers and lakes. Here you'll find a bite prediction — when fish are active and which hours give the best chances, adjusted for weather and pressure.

The shoreline is moderately indented: bays and points alternate with even stretches. Smaller than 5 of the 7 waters nearby.
The wind builds its wave along the north-west — south-east axis — 2 km of open water; along north-east — south-west there is only 0.9 km. When it runs down the main axis, the calm water sits against the bank it blows from, while the wave and the silt go to the far one — and the fish follow them there to feed.
Yukon: the months when each species peaks and when it goes quiet. The current month is outlined.
| Fish | January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arctic char | slow | slow | slow | slow | fair | active | peak | peak | peak | active | fair | slow |

Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom. The water's cold — fish it more delicately and slowly.
Thrasher Bay — Tuesday, October 20
The bite is strong — fish are active. Weather is steady, with no sharp swings — fish behave predictably. Peak 09:00–10:00 and 18:00–20:00.
The computed water temperature is around 5 °C — inside the 1–10 °C comfort range for Arctic char, so baseline activity is high.
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 19 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.
October is an active season for Arctic char here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Open-Meteo Marine model, grid cell 17.7 km from the waterbody. Values are daily means.
Snow · feels like -6°
The day is 9 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.
