About the New South Wales Fishing Map

Bite Compass tracks 122 fishing spots across New South Wales, each with a live wind, tide, and bite-time forecast. The map shows a live wind heat-field across the NSW coast: cooler blues are light air, greens and yellows are a working breeze, and oranges through magenta mark the strong-wind end of the scale (the legend keys the exact km/h bands). Pin colours show each spot's bite score for today — gold pins are firing, teal are steady, slate are quiet, and dark pins are still waiting on today's score; tap one for the full forecast.

Drag the timeline along the bottom to scrub the wind forecast forward up to five days, then press play to animate it. The layer rail on the right adds tide chips (rising or falling, with the next turn's time), swell heights, and water temperatures to each spot as you zoom in. Tap any pin to open that spot's full bite-time forecast — wind direction, wave height, tide stage, and the solunar bite windows for the day. Bite times are a forecast, not a guarantee: they tell you when conditions line up, not that the fish have read the same chart.

How Bite Times Work

Each spot's score blends the solunar major/minor feeding windows with the local tide stage and weather, so the busy periods move with the moon and the tide rather than sitting at fixed clock hours. The how it works page walks through the model, and the solunar forecast shows the raw feeding windows the map draws on.

Times use local time in New South Wales, including daylight-saving changes where applicable.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Press / to search spots by name — the quickest way to a pin without a mouse. Space plays or pauses the forecast animation and n jumps the timeline back to now. With the timeline focused, the arrow keys step three hours, Page Up and Page Down jump further, and Home or End go to either end of the forecast.
