Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason.
City of Edinburgh — Wednesday, October 21
The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is dropping — this usually boosts the bite. Peak 08:00–09:00 and 18:00–19:00.
The computed water temperature is around 10 °C — inside the 4–18 °C comfort range for Ruffe, so baseline activity is high.
Ruffe works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is flat: it moves no more than 1 hPa over the day, so the weather isn't shifting today's bite.
October is peak season for Ruffe here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Cloudy · feels like +7°
The day is 4 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.
