Set the alarm for 2:20 p.m.

Web alarm clock for 2:20 p.m.

Before you finish turning the fish drying on the mesh racks and leave, set the alarm for 2:20 pm so the next check does not slip your mind. It gives you a clear stopping point while there is still daylight for handling the racks. By 3:00 pm, you can be on to the next part of the afternoon rather than wondering whether every piece was turned.

Once the fish is arranged, keep this alarm page open while you step away from the drying area. Closing the page or browser cancels its chance to sound, and a sleeping phone may mean the fish stays on one side longer than planned. Leave the phone awake, keep its volume audible, and place it somewhere dry and shaded where you can hear it without bringing it close to the racks.

Because 2:20 pm falls in the warm part of a Philippine afternoon, let anyone else at home know what the alarm means. A short heads-up keeps someone from silencing it as an unexplained noise, especially during a nap, remote work, or quiet household chores. If another person may reach the racks first, agree that the sound is the signal to check the fish and turn any pieces you missed.
