Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 17:4 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.

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.

Green and yellow areas indicate the best fishing times (major and minor). Blue areas indicate high and low tides. The center shows the current moon phase which is a Waning Gibbous at 86% lumination. According to the Solunar Theory, today is a average day for fishing, but you need to cross check this with the current weather forecast for a final decision. Today some bite times coincide with sunrise or sunset. Those will be particularly good times for fishing and are indicated by sun icons. Currently we have a minor fishing time. The next best fishing time ( ) starts in -8 hour and -26 minute. The gray time indicator displays the current local time.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

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 Lisburn

Lisburn fishing is dominated by the River Lagan and its canalised sections, backed up by small lakes, club waters and day-ticket fisheries within a short drive. The area suits both travelling and local anglers, with easy road and rail access and a mix of wild river fishing and more controlled stillwaters for consistent sport.

The River Lagan through Lisburn holds wild brown trout, some salmon and sea trout, plus a growing coarse fish population in the slower reaches. From early April, trout respond well to small dry flies and spiders fished on light tackle. Olive and dark patterns work in clear flows, while slightly larger, bushier dries help when the river colours up. In cooler water, weighted nymphs and small tungsten jigs drifted through the deeper seams consistently pick up fish.

Seasonal patterns on the Lagan are straightforward. Spring brings improving water clarity and active trout feeding in riffles and pocket water; focus on warm afternoons with a subtle upstream dry or duo setup. Summer sees lower levels and more weed growth, so scale down to fine tippets, long leaders and small emergers, and fish first light and last light to avoid pressured fish. Autumn often gives the best overall fishing, with coloured water encouraging trout and the occasional salmon to move; this is the time for small copper or silver spinners, or compact tubes and shrimp-style flies on overcast days. Winter can still produce fish with slowly worked soft plastics, small metal jigs and heavy nymphs in the deeper bends.

Coarse and predator anglers in the Lisburn area target pike, perch, roach and bream in the slower Lagan stretches, the remnants of the Lagan Navigation and nearby ponds. Look for deeper outside bends, moored-boat areas and marinas where baitfish concentrate. Pike respond to wobbling deadbaits, medium-sized spinners and shallow-diving plugs; in coloured water, choose loud patterns with plenty of vibration. Perch are tightly shoaled—fish small worms, prawns or soft plastics around bridges, pilings and any submerged structure, keeping your rig just off the bottom.

Stillwaters and club lakes around Lisburn often hold stocked rainbow trout and mixed coarse species. On trout fisheries, intermediate lines with small lures, damsels and buzzers cover most situations; vary retrieve speed until you find the depth and pace fish want. On coarse venues, a simple waggler or feeder approach with maggots, sweetcorn or pellets will regularly take roach, bream and tench. Feed little and often, and step up hooklengths if pike are present and biting off rigs.

Tactically, success around Lisburn comes from mobile fishing and careful water reading. Work short sections of bank thoroughly rather than camping on one swim. Target inflows, confluences, overhanging trees, weed edges and any break in flow. Waders help you cover more water on the Lagan, but even from the bank, casting upstream at an angle and controlling drift with minimal drag is key for trout. For lure and coarse anglers, keep tackle compact and organised so you can move quickly between spots until you locate active fish.

Interactive Fishing Map for the greater Lisburn area

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 5 beaches and bays in this area.

Sandy Bay - 16.64102010695km , Antrim Bay - 24.70050606968km , Helen's Bay - 25.6304608612km , Bangor Bay - 28.4601824319km , Ballyholme Bay - 30.18842288017km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 2 main harbours in this area.
