Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
Tyne and Wear — Wednesday, October 21
The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. A thunderstorm is possible: activity rises before the front and drops after. Peak 07:00–09:00 and 18:00–19:00.
The computed water temperature is around 11 °C — inside the 6–17 °C comfort range for Brown trout, so baseline activity is high.
Brown trout 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 0 hPa over the day, so the weather isn't shifting today's bite.
October is a slow season for Brown trout: 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 +11°
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 fieldG1 geomagnetic storm, Kp 4.7
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.
