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 Las Negras is -. The average water temperature in Las Negras 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 Tuesday, 28th of March of 2023, the sun rose in Las Negras at 7:59:51 h and sunset was at 20:26:25 h. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide was at 1:19 h and the next low tide at 14:15 h. The first high tide was at 8:51 h and the next high tide will be at 22:07 h.
Today we had 12 hours and 26 minutes of sun. The solar transit was at 14:13:08 h.
The tidal coefficient today is 32, a very low value, which means that there will not be a great difference between high tide and low tide. The currents will also be very small. At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 28. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 26.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Las Negras which is of 0.2 m and a minimum height of -0.3 m.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of March of 2023.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Las Negras, forecast in March.
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 Las Negras, the wind in Las Negras and the surf forecast in Las Negras before you go fishing.
The moon set at 2:57 h at 305° northwest. Then, the moon rose at 55° northeast at 12:13 h.
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
