The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:45–2:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:17–3:17 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:43–8:43 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:50–8:50 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.
