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 Wednesday, 1st of May of 2024, the sun will rise in Parque das Dunas at 5:20:38 h and sunset will be at 17:14:52 h. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide will be at 3:42 h and the next low tide at 16:37 h. The first high tide will be at 9:51 h and the next high tide at 22:56 h.
Today we will have 11 hours and 54 minutes of sun. The solar transit will be at 11:17:45 h.
The tidal coefficient today is 44, 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 48. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 53.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Parque das Dunas which is of 2.9 m and a minimum height of -0.2 m.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of May of 2024.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Parque das Dunas, forecast in May.
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 Parque das Dunas, the wind in Parque das Dunas and the surf forecast in Parque das Dunas before you go fishing.
Today we can see the moonset on the horizon at 249° southwest at 11:58 h.
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
