Today's Fishing Advice

1. Best target species today: Pollock / Coalfish

   • This species is the top choice because the current water temperature of 10.0 °C is ideal for Pollock, which thrive between 8-14 °C. November is a strong month for them, making this a reliable time to target these fish.
   • Look for Pollock along rocky shorelines and areas with kelp or deeper structure, particularly near points or bays where they can ambush prey.
   • Use a medium-sized artificial lure, around 15-25 grams, that mimics a small fish or sandeel, as they respond well to movement.
   • Today, fish during the low-light periods around dawn and dusk, ideally when there's some tidal movement. The stable water temperature should keep them active.

2. Second-best target species today: Cod

   • Cod are a solid option right now, as they are active in water temperatures up to 12 °C, and November is part of their improving season. They are likely to feed around structures or drop-offs.
   • Target Cod from shore in deeper areas, particularly near rocky outcrops or where the bottom structure changes, as they often stay closer to these spots in the autumn.
   • A slightly heavier lure in the 30-50 grams range is effective for Cod, especially if you can manage to get it down to where they are holding.
   • Similar to Pollock, focus on fishing during dawn and dusk. The movement of water during these periods can enhance your chances of success.

Overall assessment: - Fishing conditions today are good, with active feeding likely around the recommended times and suitable temperatures for both species.

Tomorrow outlook: - Considering the ongoing season and seasonal behavior patterns, expect solid opportunities for Pollock and Cod again tomorrow, especially in the early morning and late afternoon.
