Fishing bite forecast in Penitsa — in detail
The bite forecast is computed from real weather data for Penitsa: atmospheric pressure and its dynamics, wind, cloud cover, precipitation, moon phase and water temperature — Pripyat, Закованка. Each species gets its own score: for crucian carp, bream and roach warm water and steady pressure play the main role, for pike and zander — overcast weather and changes in light. The score is recomputed with every weather update, so morning and evening forecasts may differ.
It is a computed model, not a guarantee of catch: local terrain, groundbait and skill matter no less than weather. See also water temperature in Penitsa, the weekly weather forecast and the lunar calendar.
