INTRODUCTION
Speedtech’s Angler’s EDGE PLUS is a
handheld precision instrument which tracks sun
and moon positions, barometric air pressure,
and predicts fish feeding activity based on
those measurements.
FEATURES
• Present fish feeding activity, 1-10
• 4-hr future fish feeding activity forecast
• 96-year fish feeding activity based on future
sun and moon information
• Barometric air pressure with 24-hr history
• Sunrise, sunset times
• Moon phase and position
• Weather forecast based on pressure
• EL backlight
SCIENTIFIC BASIS
Anglers and scientists alike identify several
key factors affecting fish behavior. For
centuries, fishermen have been aware that
moon phase and position relative to the earth’s
surface can greatly influence feeding activity.
Details of record game fish catches clearly
suggest that lunar phase has a bearing on fish
feeding activity, with specific lunar events such
as full or new moons being the most notable
times of good catch rates. This activity occurs
among both ocean-dwelling and freshwater
fish. The time of day and sun position are
important components as well.
Weather is another vital factor affecting fish
activity. Evaluations of bass and walleye
tournament summaries from across the United
States demonstrate the importance of local
weather patterns and events on fish behavior.
