The effects of Water Temperature
Fish are cold blooded, which means their metabolism is strongly influenced by the temperature of their surrounding environment. Fish want to stay comfortable. Consequently, even a small change or break will cause fish to move from one location to another.
In general, this behavior varies for each species and place, so we can not specify an ideal water temperature, however as a general rule we will try to avoid the temperatures abnormally cold in summer and too warm in winter. Remember, look for the comfort zones and you will find the fish.
We consider the waves in the open sea.
The waves you will find on the shore can be slightly affected by the orientation of the coastline and the seabed of the beaches, although in most cases they are usually equivalent.
Today Friday, 13th of December of 2024, the sun will rise in Frenchman Bay at 4:46:01 am and sunset will be at 7:18:38 pm. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the low tide will be at 5:21 am and the high tide will be at 9:41 pm.
Today we will have 14 hours and 32 minutes of sun. The solar transit will be at 12:02:19 pm.
The tidal coefficient today is 85, a high value and therefore the range of tides and currents will also be high. At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 86. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 87.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Frenchman Bay which is of 1.4 m and a minimum height of 0.0 m.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of December of 2024.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Frenchman Bay, forecast in December.
Large coefficients indicate important high and low tides; major currents and movements usually take place on the sea bed. But bear in mind that this tidal amplitude may be greatly affected by the weather and you should also consult the weather forecast in Frenchman Bay, the wind in Frenchman Bay and the surf forecast in Frenchman Bay before you go fishing.
The moon set at 2:31 am at 295° northwest. Eventually, the moon will rise again in the northeast (62°) at 5:15 pm.
When the solunar period coincides with sunrise or sunset, we can expect more activity than initially planned. These peak periods are reflected in green. We additionally point out in the chart the periods of greatest activity during the year with a big blue fish on the period bar + info
