River Calder — Tuesday, November 3
The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued. Peak 10:00–15:00.
The computed water temperature is around 10 °C — colder than the 16–28 °C comfort range for Carp: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
Carp feeds by day — between sunrise and sunset; their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is dropping 2 hPa over the day — fish are usually more active ahead of a weather change.
November is a slow season for Carp: 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 +6°
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.
