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

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:46–3:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:18–4:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:13–11:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:23–8:23 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.
