River Inny (Cornwall) — a spot well known among anglers. About 30 km long. Flows into River Tamar. Close by — Launceston, Callington and Liskeard. Here you'll find a bite prediction — when fish are active and which hours give the best chances, adjusted for weather and pressure.

The course is moderately sinuous: pools are scoured at the bends and riffles run between them. Longer than 7 of the 10 rivers nearby.

Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
River Inny — Wednesday, October 21
The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Pressure is dropping — this usually boosts the bite. Peak 08:00–09:00 and 18:00–20:00.
The computed water temperature is around 12 °C — inside the 4–14 °C comfort range for Atlantic salmon, so baseline activity is high.
Atlantic salmon works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is rising 11 hPa over the day — the bite usually settles down after a rise.
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 average month for Atlantic salmon here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Partly cloudy · feels like +4°
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 fieldunsettled, Kp 4
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.
