Fishing times in Qatar

Fishing times — what to expect in this country

In Qatar, anglers most often target Grouper, Kingfish and Queenfish. Monsoon-driven Asia shifts the bite windows noticeably between wet and dry seasons — solunar moon phases tend to be most pronounced in the clearer winter months. For solunar trip planning, focus on the days around the new and full moon — major periods on these days overlap most often with sunrise and sunset, the natural feeding peaks.

How it works

The Solunar calendar uses sun and moon data to predict when fish are most active. Major periods (about 2 hours) surround the moon transits; minor periods (about 1 hour) surround moonrise and moonset. The 1-to-5 star rating factors in moon phase and overlap with sunrise and sunset. New and full moon days deliver the strongest action.
