Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:02–3:02 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 7:34–8:34 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:35–9:35 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.
