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.

Lures

In clear water, natural colors work best: crankbait or spoon.

Gear

No special gear needed — seasonal clothing will do.
