Solunar Feeding Times — Perth & WA
Solunar fishing — common questions
What is solunar theory?
Solunar theory links possible feeding activity to lunar position. Major windows surround the upper transit and estimated opposite passage; minor windows surround moonrise and moonset. These are planning estimates, not observations that fish are feeding.
When are the best moon phases for fishing?
There is no single moon phase our model treats as best for every species. Species profiles can favor darker or brighter conditions, or use a neutral moon preference. Compare your target species and local conditions instead of treating a moon phase as a catch guarantee.
How do I use solunar windows?
Use these windows as one input when choosing a session. Compare them with the spot activity chart, your target species, tides and weather. The upper transit comes from astronomical calculations; the opposite passage is estimated 12 hours away.
