Flounder lives in Maine. Today's bite forecast, a day-by-day and hour-by-hour activity calendar, best time and baits.
Sunday, September 6
The bite is strong — fish are active. Weather is steady, with no sharp swings — fish behave predictably.
Best time — 00:00–03:00 and 23:00–23:00 (nighttime activity).
Look for structure — reefs, flats, channel edges; work them slowly near the bottom.
In clear water, natural colors work best: soft-plastic jig or live bait.
Pack transitional-season clothing — mornings and evenings are chilly.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
The computed water temperature is around 60 °F — inside the 54–75 °F 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 rising 0.03 inHg over the day — the bite usually settles down after a rise.
September is peak season for Flounder here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Cloudy · feels like +54°
The day is 3 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.
