Forecast

Today's bite windows, dialed in.

We combine solunar tables, tide stations, moon phase and WM DAN marine weather to score the best hours to be on the water.

5:40a – 7:15a

Excellent

Sunrise + outgoing tide. Topwater snook + trout.

10:30a – 12:00p

Good

Solunar major. Redfish push on flats.

3:45p – 5:30p

Fair

Tide slack — focus deeper structure.

7:10p – 8:30p

Excellent

Sunset + incoming. Snook + tarpon evening bite.

Methodology

How we score a bite window.

Tide

Moving water beats slack. We weight outgoing first hour and incoming last hour highest.

Solunar

Majors carry more weight than minors. Sunrise + major = green light.

NOAA

Wind, swell direction and pressure shifts from NOAA refine the score.

Captain's Interpretation · WM DAN Premium

Know what the forecast means.

NOAA says: Public bite-window scoring is solunar + tide + NOAA wind.

WM DAN's Captain says: Get the Go / No-Go call, best bite window, and species-specific outlook for inshore, nearshore and offshore — written by working SWFL captains.
