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.
At this moment the current water temperature in Port Blackney is -. The average water temperature in Port Blackney today is -.
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 Wednesday, 17th of August of 2022, the sun rose in Port Blackney at 6:20:37 am and sunset was at 8:52:05 pm. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first high tide was at 5:22 am and the next high tide at 5:43 pm. The only low tide of the day was at 11:24 am.
Today we had 14 hours and 31 minutes of sun. The solar transit was at 1:36:21 pm.
The tidal coefficient today is 62 (average). At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 55. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 49.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Port Blackney which is of 5.3 m and a minimum height of -0.2 m.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of August of 2022.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Port Blackney, forecast in August.
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 Port Blackney, the wind in Port Blackney and the surf forecast in Port Blackney before you go fishing.
The moon set at 1:34 pm at 293° northwest. Eventually, the moon will rise again in the northeast (63°) at 11:10 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
