Wind Speed and Direction

Wind Direction:

Wind Speed:

Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.

Fishing Barometer

Atmospheric Pressure:

Change since midnight:

Trend for next 6 hours:

Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.

UV Effect on Fishing

UV Index:

As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

Welcome To Fishingreminder - Your Ultimate Fishing Almanac

The aim of this website is to provide vital fishing information for planning successful fishing trips. We want to give you the best fishing almanac the internet has to offer.

Fishing is a great hobby and in order to catch fish consistently we need to consider a wide range of parameters. We need to familiarize ourselves with the habitat of the target species, look for good fishing spots, decide which tackle to use, check weather, wind and tides and make an educated guess about the best time to go fishing on a given day.

Fishingreminder is here to help you decide when to go fishing. Fish have feeding times just like us, we call them bite times. But their feeding times follow a natural rhythm of sun and moon. Because sun and moon will change during the years, months and days the bite times for each day will vary.

For that reason a specific theory was developed to describe and predict bite times. It's called the Solunar Theory. Fishingreminder uses this theory to calculate a fishing calendar based on sun and moon movements, tides and weather. We have even included knowledge from the ancient Maori fishing calendar in our calculations.

According to the Solunar Theory all wildlife and not only fish follow a similar feeding rhythm. Fishingreminder can therefore also be used for hunting and bird watching to find times of increased feeding activity.

Sometimes we are very busy with work and other commitments and don’t have time or forget to check for good fishing days regularly. Only to realize a week or so after new moon that we have just missed what could have been an epic fishing session.

That’s why Fishingreminder will scan the best fishing times for your location daily and remind you per email when you should go out fishing. Cause we know that nothing is more frustrating then to miss a great fishing opportunity.

On the site you will find Major and Minor Fishing Times, Sun and Moon information, Tide information if available and Weather info’s.

There is also a Forum, which you can use to ask people for advice or help others with your knowledge. In the Photo Section you can share your photos and show us what you caught and comment on photos. We also have an Article section and try to upload interesting articles and links to help you become an even more successful fisherman.

So have fun, explore the site and share your thoughts and catches with us.

All the best and good luck to everyone!

I have been using fishing reminder for many years now and it definitely helps catch more fish. Good app/ website. I just figured out you can look at graphs about the air pressure and temperature and others that will help you narrow the times down even more love this site

No idea why the Major Fishing times in my location are always low tide.

5 months ago by Mark Totzke

The tide and fishing times are closely related because of the moon. When you have major times around low tide at your location then the minor times will be around high tide. If your location is only accessible or fishable during high tide then the minor times are your best bet at this particular spot.

How do I get rid of all the adds

1 week ago by Grunter Hunter

# Justin Smith. My catch rate definitely went up after incorporate it into my fishing planning. The weather are also spot on so yes I will give it a 9 out of 10. As for the phase of the moon for fishing depends on the species you're targeting and water temp

Thanks for the welcome. I'm back after a year of being landlocked. Good to be back. By the way, can the app auto detect my new location? I've tried adding my new location in Queensland but it keeps saying "confirm modal" and adds my default location. Please advise. I'd really like to get some Intel, and catch some bucket list Aussie fins while here in this beautiful country. If anyone here can give some tips for the Gold Coast area, Id appreciate it. Planning on start from Coolangatta/Tweeds (Jewfish) and work my way North abit past Brisbane by end of Feb. And Hapi New Year's y'all.
