Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:14–3:14 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:46–3:46 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:01–11:01 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:31–7:31 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 650 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 650 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.2 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
