The Trophy Climate System was introduced 9-18-13 to [[Trophy Fishing Online 2]] with Time system coming in 9-25-13. [[Trophy Hunting Online]] would receive this system at a later date. [[tfo2mechanics|CLASSIC MECHANICS]] completely ignores weather effects on fishing.

====== Weather and Climates ======

Climates are explained on locations both with a latitude to dictate time and a seasonal/location. Some locations in the same location may feature a varied season such as Winter Midwest location for Huron National Forest, Michigan. The climates range from sunshine{{:weather_sun.png?30|}} to rain{{:weather_rainy.png?30|}}. 

Conditions degrade from Sunshine->Cloudy->Rainy->Storms with Snow{{:weather_snow.jpg?30|}} replacing rain and storms in colder environments.

====== Temperatures and Climates ======

All Climates have an "average temperature" that changes throughout the period of 24 hours. At night{{:weather_moon.jpg?30|}}, temperatures drop and generally rise during daytime{{:weather_sun.png?30|}}. Cloud covering weather affects can also drop temperatures.

====== Times ======

Times range from Night (21:00-5:00), Day 7:00-19:00 and also two specific time periods of Sunrise at 6:00 and Sunset at 20:00. 

====== Seasons ======

{{ :seasonsimage.jpg?nolink |}}

Seasons were added to the game 11/26/2013. These basically create 4 separate temperature ranges depending upon the climate throughout our real year.

Spring - March through May

Summer - June through August

Fall - September through November

Winter - January through February

====== Water Clarity ======

For [[Trophy Fishing Online 2]] water clarity is effected by weather which is a modifier for the [[lure_colors|Lure Color]] system. Water Clarity changes from clear to murky based on current weather conditions, the longer it rains - the more the water clarity becomes muddier from coastal erosion and heavier winds. On clear and cloudy days, water clarity gradually improves.

====== General Strategies ======

  * Some species become more active in colder or warmer weather than the climate may experience.
  * Some species are nocturnal such as Walleye or Racoons.
  * Rainfall and Storms increase activity in fish and animals.
  * Sunset and Sunrise increase activity in fish and animals.
