Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 4.3 °F less yesterday than the model gives now: the water is probably colder than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 79.1 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.5 °F).

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,432 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:28–2:28 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:00–3:00 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 6:23–7:23 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:40–9:40 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
