Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 13:52 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

Full Moon is generally a productive time for fishing - especially night fishing. Bright nights mean that many predators feed more actively during the night. During full moon the gravitational pull is in line with the gravitational pull of the sun, affecting all wildlife and increasing feeding behaviour.
  • Distance to earth:
    385,691 km
    Proximity:
    47 %
We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview Dudley

Fishing in Dudley revolves around its network of canals and a good spread of small stillwaters, giving local anglers plenty of options without travelling far. The Dudley No.2 Canal, Stourbridge Canal arms and the nearby Netherton Tunnel Branch offer classic Black Country canal fishing with mixed bags of roach, skimmers, perch and the chance of bonus carp, pike and zander. Local pools such as Fens Pool, Bumble Hole and various club- or day-ticket fisheries hold larger carp, tench and bream for more relaxed session angling.

Seasonally, the canals around Dudley fish best from late spring through autumn. In April and May, concentrate on bread punch or pinkies over a light groundbait mix for roach and skimmers, starting down the track and roaming to far-bank features once fish show. Summer brings stronger pole and waggler sport, with hemp and tares or caster for better roach, and chopped worm and caster for perch around boat channels, moored craft and reed beds. Through winter, scale down to fine hooklengths, tiny hooks and single maggots, targeting the far shelf and deeper bends where fish shoal tightly.

On the canals, a 4–6 m pole covers most work, but a longer pole helps reach tight far-bank cover. Feed sparingly at first: a few grains of hemp and a pinch of maggots every put-in will keep bites coming without overfeeding in these pressured waters. For bonus carp and bream, set up a small method feeder or cage feeder to the far shelf with micro pellets and a wafter or corn on the hook. Early morning and late evening are prime times, especially around marina mouths, junctions and any inflowing streams.

Dudley’s park pools and commercial-style fisheries generally hold a mix of carp, F1s, tench, bream and roach. In warmer months, margin fishing is a top tactic: loosefeed 6 mm pellets or corn tight to reeds or rushes, then fish a short pole rig or light method feeder over the top. On deeper lakes, start on a short pole or bomb and pellet line for carp, switching to a shallow slapping or mugging approach if fish cruise high in the water. Tench and bream respond well to sweet groundbait with dead maggots and a worm or corn hookbait fished just over-depth.

Predator anglers on the Dudley canals can find pike and zander along the boat channels and near locks and bridges. Small deadbaits such as roach or smelt, fished on a simple float paternoster, work well in the colder months. Lure anglers should travel light with compact jig heads, shads and small crankbaits, systematically covering features such as overhanging trees, moorings and drop-offs.

Whatever venue you choose, travel with minimal gear and stay mobile. Rotate a few lines, keep feed measured and watch for signs such as topping silver fish, bubbling tench or swirling predators. Dudley’s canals and pools reward anglers who read the water, adjust rigs subtly and build their swims steadily rather than chasing instant action.
