River Tâf (Pembrokeshire) — one of the area's fishing spots. About 11 km long. Flows into Carmarthen Bay. The town of Newport is nearby. Here you'll find a bite prediction — when fish are active and which hours give the best chances, adjusted for weather and pressure.
Partly cloudy: 12–15 °C
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 18 of the 20 rivers nearby.
Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
River Tâf — Friday, September 18
The bite is strong — fish are active. A thunderstorm is possible: activity rises before the front and drops after. Peak 06:00–08:00 and 19:00–20:00.
The computed water temperature is around 15 °C — warmer than the 4–14 °C comfort range for Atlantic salmon: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.
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 1 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.
September is an active season for Atlantic salmon here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Cloudy · feels like +12°
The day is 4 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
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.
