Fishing barometer

1004 hPa ↗ Rising
  • Rising Very good — today Rising pressure after a low signals settling weather — fish feed confidently and this is often the best barometer window of all.
  • Stable Normal activity 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 1002 hPa max 1014 hPa Hover, tap or arrow-key the line to read any hour.

The barometer is rising, which usually switches feeding back on: fish sense settling conditions and move to feed with confidence. A rising trend after a spell of low pressure is one of the strongest signals to get out on the water.

Moderate

Moderate exposure — wear sunglasses and apply SPF 30+ if you are out over the middle of the day.

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.
8+ · Very high to extreme
Use SPF 50+, cover up and stay out of the sun through the middle of the day.

The sea surface holds around 18.3° today, moving between 18.2° and 18.5°. Water temperature sets the pace of fish metabolism, so even a small shift can change where fish hold and how actively they feed.

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.

Best fishing times today

Fair

Solunar theory rates today a fair day for fishing at Roskilde — plan around the major and minor periods below.

Major Peak activity

Moon overhead (lunar transit)

Overlaps sunrise or sunset
Minor Average activity

17:03 – 18:03

Moonrise

Major period Minor period Daylight

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

Saturday 5 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.

High tide turn

00:00 – 02:00

Water peaks at 01:00 then starts to fall.

Low tide turn

04:30 – 06:30

Water bottoms out at 05:30 then starts to rise.

Prime window

08:40 – 10:40

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

Low tide turn

09:10 – 11:10

Water bottoms out at 10:10 then starts to rise.

High tide turn

13:00 – 15:00

Water peaks at 14:00 then starts to fall.

Low tide turn

16:50 – 18:50

Water bottoms out at 17:50 then starts to rise.

Prime window

20:30 – 22:30

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

Low tide turn

22:00 – 23:59

Water bottoms out at 23:00 then starts to rise.

Biggest tides: 9–12 Sep (coef 103) · Quietest stretch: 18–19 Sep (coef 20) · Morning 37 · afternoon 45. Predicted levels run between -0.3 m and 0.1 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 Roskilde local time, with daylight saving already applied.

Frequently asked questions

Tides, coefficients and fishing times for Roskilde, explained.

What time is high tide in Roskilde today?

High water at Roskilde today is at 01:00 and 09:40 and 14:00 and 21:30. 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 Roskilde?

Based on solunar theory the fishing rating today is Fair. 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 45 (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 Roskilde today?

The sun rises at 06:24 and sets at 19:55 local time, giving 13h 31m of daylight.

What is the water temperature in Roskilde today?

The sea surface at Roskilde is around 18.4°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.
