Fishing barometer

1008 hPa → Stable
  • Rising Very good Rising pressure after a low signals settling weather — fish feed confidently and this is often the best barometer window of all.
  • Stable Normal activity — today A steady barometer for a day or more means settled conditions and predictable, average feeding around tides and solunar peaks.
  • Falling Good at first A dropping barometer sparks a burst of feeding before the weather turns, then activity slows markedly as the front arrives.
min 1006 hPa max 1010 hPa Hover, tap or arrow-key the line to read any hour.

The barometer is holding steady. Expect routine feeding behaviour, with the usual peaks around tide changes and the solunar periods rather than any pressure-driven surge.

High

High exposure — protection is essential: hat, sunglasses and SPF 30+, and take shade around midday.

1–2 · Low
Little risk — most people need no sun protection.
3–7 · Moderate to high
Wear a hat, sunglasses and SPF 30+, and take shade around midday.

Use SPF 50+, cover up and stay out of the sun through the middle of the day.

Very high High Average Low

A larger coefficient means a wider gap between high and low water, so the strongest currents run along the sea bed. Tidal range also shifts with the weather — check the wind and swell before you head out.

Solunar theory rates today a slow day for fishing at Isla Socorro — plan around the major and minor periods below.

Major periods track the moon's transit and opposing transit and run about two hours; minor periods open at moonrise and moonset and last about an hour. When a period lands on sunrise or sunset, activity climbs higher still — and that overlap happens today.

Bite windows

Thursday 3 September

Fish feed hardest when the water starts moving — plan around the hour before and after each tide turn, and doubly so where a turn meets a solunar major period.

Prime window

03:10 – 05:10

Tide turn overlaps a major solunar period — the best bite of the day.

High tide turn

10:20 – 12:20

Water peaks at 11:20 then starts to fall.

Prime window

18:40 – 20:40

Tide turn overlaps a major solunar period — the best bite of the day.

Biggest tides: 9–11 Sep (coef 104) · Quietest stretch: 17–19 Sep (coef 20) · Morning 46 · afternoon 38. Predicted levels run between -0.8 m and 0.8 m this month.

Heights are metres above the station's chart datum, so the biggest tides can dip just below zero. Every time shown is Isla Socorro local time, with daylight saving already applied.

Frequently asked questions

Tides, coefficients and fishing times for Isla Socorro, explained.

What time is high tide in Isla Socorro today?

High water at Isla Socorro today is at 11:20. The full list of high and low tide times is in the table above and refreshes every day.

Is today a good day to fish in Isla Socorro?

Based on solunar theory the fishing rating today is Slow. The strongest windows are the major periods around the lunar transit, which often line up with sunrise and sunset.

What is the tidal coefficient and why does it matter?

The coefficient runs from 0 to 120 and measures the tidal range — today it is 38 (Low). Higher numbers mean stronger currents and a bigger gap between high and low water, which matters for fishing, diving and boating.

When are sunrise and sunset in Isla Socorro today?

The sun rises at 06:09 and sets at 18:36 local time, giving 12h 27m of daylight.

What is the water temperature in Isla Socorro today?

The sea surface at Isla Socorro is around 28.0°C right now. Water temperature sets the pace of fish metabolism, so the hourly strip above is worth a glance — even a small shift can change where fish hold and how actively they feed.

How big are the waves in Isla Socorro today?

The significant wave height at Isla Socorro is currently 3.2 m with a period of 9.4 s between crests. Individual sets can stack up to roughly twice that height, so allow a margin at exposed marks and anchorages.
