Flounder lives in County Cork. Today's bite forecast, a day-by-day and hour-by-hour activity calendar, best time and baits.
The bite is strong — fish are active. A thunderstorm is possible: activity rises before the front and drops after.
Best time — 00:00–01:00 and 02:00–05:00 (nighttime activity).
Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom.
The water's turning murky — go with bright, noisy lures: soft-plastic jig or live bait.
No special gear needed — seasonal clothing will do. A thunderstorm is possible — bring a rain jacket, and pack up at the first rumble of thunder.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
The computed water temperature is around 15 °C — inside the 12–24 °C comfort range for Flounder, so baseline activity is high.
Flounder feeds at night: the peak falls in the dark hours, between sunset and sunrise.
Pressure is flat: it moves no more than 1 hPa over the day, so the weather isn't shifting today's bite.
September is peak season for Flounder here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Drizzle · feels like +14°
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.
