Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 12:04–2:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:36–2:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:39–9:39 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:28–6:28 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.
