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
80-200 ft
Rock
STRUCTURE
Pinnacle
Mid

Point Dalco Hump is a rocky pinnacle rising off Gig Harbor, Washington, in DFO subarea 11, holding fish across a depth range of 80 to 200 feet at a mid-exposure position. The structure draws Pacific Halibut, which peak from March through July, and Lingcod, strongest from February through April, both of which respond to drift jigging with leadhead jigs, metal jigs, or herring worked over the rock. Chinook Salmon move through from June to September and Coho from July to October, taken by trolling flashers with hoochies, cut-plug herring, or trolling spoons across the hump. Bottom bait fishing with whole herring, squid, or salmon heads works the deeper edges for halibut, while live herring or greenling produces on lingcod holding tight to the pinnacle. The spot also carries Pacific Cod, Sablefish, and deepwater rockfish including Rougheye and Blackgill along the rock.
