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 we had 7 hours and 16 minutes of sun. The solar transit was at 11:44:45 am.
The tidal coefficient today is 39, a low value, which means that the range (difference between high tide and low tide) will be lower than on other occasions and the currents will also be small. At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 41. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 44.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Port Alice (Heceta Island) which is of 13.8 ft and a minimum height of -3.3 ft.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of December of 2023.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Port Alice (Heceta Island), 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 Port Alice, the wind in Port Alice and the surf forecast in Port Alice before you go fishing.
The setting of the moon took place at at 281° west at 1:04 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
