Oxfordshire — Monday, November 2
The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued. Peak 06:00–08:00 and 16:00–18:00.
The computed water temperature is around 11 °C — inside the 10–22 °C comfort range for Zander, so baseline activity is high.
Zander 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.
November is an active season for Zander here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Partly 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 fieldquiet, Kp 3
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.
