Fishing in Tulsa: FAQ

When is the best time to fish in Tulsa today?

Today's strongest bite window in Tulsa is 11:07 PM to 1:07 AM (new moon). The overall bite score is 73/100 — good. Major feeding periods follow the moon's overhead and underfoot passes; minors follow moonrise and moonset.

What are major and minor feeding periods?

Solunar theory holds that fish feed most actively when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 hours) and around moonrise and moonset (minor periods, about 90 minutes). Windows that overlap sunrise or sunset are historically the strongest.

Does weather change the bite in Tulsa?

Yes. A falling barometer ahead of a front typically triggers heavy feeding, while a sharp rise after a front slows it. Light wind that ripples the surface and cloud cover both extend feeding activity. Our daily score combines these factors with the solunar calendar.
