What is a bite calendar?

Hourly activity

0:006:0012:0018:0023:00
Bite activity:highmediumlow

The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 13:00–16:00 (daytime activity).

Tactics

Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason.

Lures

Today's bait — maggot or feeder rig. In cold or murky water, add scent to your chum.

Gear

No special gear needed — seasonal clothing will do. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.

Summary

An average day — best chances during peak windows.

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 17 °C — inside the 12–24 °C comfort range for White bream, so baseline activity is high.

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.
