River Dean's Brook (Greater London) — one of the area's fishing spots. About 9 km long. Nearby towns: Harrow, Wembley and Willesden. See when the bite is best: hourly fish activity for the days ahead, computed from the weather, pressure, and season.
Nearest towns and cities
The course meanders heavily: the current digs a pool on the outside of every bend and builds a bar on the inside. Those pools under the undercut bank are where pike typically sits. Longer than 4 of the 8 rivers nearby.

Green check: this species was recorded here by GBIF. Species without a check may still occur in the waterbody.
Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
Dean's Brook — Tuesday, November 3
The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Weather is steady, with no sharp swings — fish behave predictably. Peak 07:00–08:00 and 16:00–18:00.
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 dropping 3 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.
November is a slow season for Atlantic salmon: the best months fall at another time of year.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Partly cloudy · feels like +10°
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 fieldquiet, Kp 2
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.
