What would change the calculation
Cooler water — back toward the 10–16 °C ideal band — would lift the score and ease welfare.
The dawn and dusk windows score higher than the midday lull.
Directions
Seasons & zones
- Trout 1 April → 30 September
- Grayling 1 June → 28 February
Polish PZW national rule: grayling (lipień) protected 1 March – 31 May. Open window 1 June – 28 February. PZW district and water-specific rules may add tighter restrictions. Carpathian rivers (San, Dunajec, Biała, Skawa, Raba) hold excellent grayling — check local Okręg PZW district permit for specific conditions.
Closed in spring for spawning.
