The bite is moderate — fish feed in short bursts. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.
Best time — 00:00–02:00 and 22:00–23:00 (nighttime activity).
Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
The water's turning murky — go with bright, noisy lures: catfish clonk with bait or large bottom bait.
Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore. Rain is expected — don't forget a rain jacket or a waterproof shell.
An average day — best chances during peak windows.
The computed water temperature is around 13 °C — colder than the 16–28 °C comfort range for Wels catfish: the fish conserves energy and takes more cautiously.
Wels catfish feeds at night: the peak falls in the dark hours, between sunset and sunrise.
Pressure is rising 2 hPa over the day — the bite usually settles down after a rise.

These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Cloudy · feels like +9°
The day is 5 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.
