Wind on the coast and offshore

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:33–4:33 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:06–5:06 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:01 am–12:01 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:10–9:10 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.
