UV index
Fri 30: 9 · Sat 31: 9 · Sun 1: 9
| Index | Level | What to do |
|---|---|---|

- → Steady · now Anglers expect normal activity
- ↘ Falling Anglers say fish feed more before the change
Steady now (+0.03 inHg in 3 hours). It barely changes over the next 48 hours. Steady pressure: anglers expect normal activity. Fast changes, either way, tend to affect fishing.
