Wind Speed and Direction
Wind Direction:
Wind Speed:
Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.
Fishing Barometer
Atmospheric Pressure:
Change since midnight:
Trend for next 6 hours:
Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.
UV Effect on Fishing
As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

October Fishing Report
October on Middle River brings crisp mornings and active fish. Expect strong action from striped bass as schools push bait into coves and channel edges; look for gulls over breaking fish. White perch slide deeper to 10–20 ft near bridge pilings and drop-offs, while channel catfish prowl muddy bends after sundown. In warmer afternoons, creeks can yield largemouth bass around laydowns and riprap. Water temps are cooling into the 60s, and a north breeze after fronts often sparks mid-day bites.
Best windows are dawn and dusk on a moving tide. Work shorelines, points, and the mouths of coves; current seams near Hart‑Miller and marsh edges are productive. For rockfish, throw topwater walkers at first light, then switch to 1/2–1 oz jigheads with soft plastics or bucktails as the sun rises. Perch respond to small metals or bloodworm-tipped rigs tight to structure. Fresh cut menhaden or chicken liver draws cats along deeper ledges.
Top tip: Keep a spoon or compact metal ready—when birds start working, a fast-sinking lure lets you reach busting fish quickly and match small peanut bunker.
