Fishing tips
- Go at golden hourFish usually bite more at dawn and late afternoon than in the midday sun.
- Steady pressureWhen pressure drops fast (before storms), fish often bite less.
- Check the tidesAt sea and in estuaries, fish are often active when the tide turns.
- Safety firstLeave the water at the first thunder; a fishing rod conducts electricity.
Fishing weather FAQ
How is the fishing index calculated?
A 0–100 score for daytime hours, adding points for light wind, little rain, steady pressure and a moon near new or full. It is a rule of thumb for reference, not a scientific forecast of fish.
Why does the moon phase matter for fishing?
New and full moons bring stronger (spring) tides that move water and food around — many anglers find fish bite better on those days.
How windy is too windy for fishing?
Above about 30 km/h, waves get big, bait is hard to control and boating is risky. A light breeze, though, ripples the water and can make fish less wary.
