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 Lockheed Shipyard (Harbor Island) is -. The average water temperature in Lockheed Shipyard (Harbor Island) 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 Sunday, 7th of August of 2022, the sun rose in Lockheed Shipyard (Harbor Island) at 5:55:15 am and sunset was at 8:33:32 pm. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide was at 7:14 am and the next low tide at 7:27 pm. The only high tide of the day was at 3:07 pm.

The tidal coefficient today is 53 (average). At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 57. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 61.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Lockheed Shipyard (Harbor Island) which is of 13.5 ft and a minimum height of -4.3 ft.
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 Lockheed Shipyard (Harbor Island), 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 Lockheed Shipyard, the wind in Lockheed Shipyard and the surf forecast in Lockheed Shipyard before you go fishing.
The moon set at 12:39 am at 233° southwest. Then, the moon rose at 130° southeast at 5:22 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
