Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.8 °F more 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 54.0 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.8 °F).

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:21–3:21 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 10:03–11:03 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:41–7:41 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.
