What is a bite calendar?

Hourly activity

0:006:0012:0018:0023:00
Bite activity:highmediumlow

The bite is strong — fish are active. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 12:00–17:00 (daytime activity).

Tactics

Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason.

Lures

Today's bait — maggot or feeder rig. In cold or murky water, add scent to your chum.

Gear

Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.

Summary

Worth going — it's a productive day.

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 10 °C — colder than the 12–24 °C comfort range for White bream: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
