What is a bite calendar?

Hourly activity

0:006:0012:0018:0023:00
Bite activity:highmediumlow

The bite is weak — fish are sluggish. Pressure is rising — activity tends to be more subdued.

Peak bite hours

Best time — 12:00–16:00 (daytime activity).

Tactics

Pick a stretch of steady current, chum one spot and fish it — don't move around without reason.

Lures

Today's bait — worm or tiny jig.

Gear

It's a hot day — a hat, sunglasses, and plenty of water are a must.

Summary

A slow day — go only if you really feel like it.

Why this forecast

The computed water temperature is around 80 °F — inside the 64–82 °F comfort range for Bluegill, so baseline activity is high.

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.
