Fishing and tide times for:

McMurdo Station 🇦🇶

Timezone: Antarctica/McMurdo

Local Time: Wed, 8 Jan 16:12

Coordinates: -77.846 ,166.676

Sun and Moon

The sun will be at it's highest point at 02:00 pm. Today we have 0:0 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

Nautical Twilight begins:

12:00 pm

Distance to earth:

363,550 km

Proximity:

99 %

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

Green and yellow areas indicate the best fishing times (major and minor). Blue areas indicate high and low tides. The center shows the current moon phase which is a First Quarter Moon at 61% lumination. According to the Solunar Theory, today is a average day for fishing, but you need to cross check this with the current weather forecast for a final decision. The next best fishing time will be tomorrow. The gray time indicator displays the current local time.

Tide Clock

The Tideclock displays the tide status and the hours until the next tide. Currently the tide is rising and the next high tide is in 6 hours.

Tide Graph

Times

Tide	Time	Height
low	12:23 pm	1.02 ft
high	10:28 pm	2.95 ft

Tide Coefficient at 10:28 pm is 96

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

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.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.
