The day is 6 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.

Recommendations

Tactics

Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses. The water's cold — fish it more delicately and slowly.

Lures

In clear water, natural colors work best: spoon or large fly. 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.

Yukon — a region with a sea coast plus rivers and lakes. The region has 3 cities, 219 rivers, 529 water bodies and 23 sea areas. We forecast the bite not only on rivers and lakes, but at sea as well. Fish species: burbot, pike, grayling, whitefish, nelma and lake trout. 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.
