Fishing bite forecast in Sotnikov — in detail
The bite forecast is computed from real weather data for Sotnikov: atmospheric pressure and its dynamics, wind, cloud cover, precipitation, moon phase and water temperature — Сухой Еланчик. 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.
