I’ve been using ReelCaster for about a month and I love it! Having all the conditions listed together is really handy and makes deciding when to go a no brainer instead of checking multiple apps and sites to get wind, current, sea conditions and tides. I highly recommend ReelCaster!

ReelCaster has completely changed how I plan my fishing trips. It brings together tides, currents, wind, swell, and water temperature in one place, then pinpoints the best times and locations to fish. It saves me time and gives me real confidence I’m on the water when conditions are ideal.

ReelCaster was very helpful in helping me figure out where and when to fish! I was lucky enough to catch a 7 lb Coho right off the beach. The info that the app provided was really helpful and it saved me the trouble of looking at multiple sources to figure out tides, weather, and regulations.

SPOT PROFILE
DEPTH
151-181 ft
Rock
STRUCTURE
Pinnacle
Inner Protected

Gig Harbor Hump is a rocky pinnacle rising from 150 to 180 feet in the protected inner waters of DFO subarea 11, off Gig Harbor, Washington. The structure holds Pacific Halibut through its March-to-July peak and Lingcod from February into April, while Black Rockfish remain available year-round alongside copper and quillback rockfish. Anglers work the rock with drift jigging for halibut, using leadhead jigs, metal jigs, or herring, and switch to metal jigs and swimbaits when Lingcod stack up on the high spots. Chinook Salmon move through from June to September and Coho from July to October, both taken by trolling flashers with hoochies, cut-plug herring, or trolling spoons over the pinnacle. The confined depth range and pronounced rock relief make this a spot where bottom presentations hold close to structure across the tide.
