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.

Rock
STRUCTURE
Pinnacle
Inner Protected

Von Geldern Cove Hump is a rocky pinnacle rising from the inner protected waters near Olympia, Washington, in DFO subarea 13, with depths running from 85 to 165 feet. The structure holds a mix of resident groundfish including Lingcod, Canary Rockfish, Copper Rockfish, and Pacific Cod, alongside Pacific Halibut over the deeper rock. Chinook Salmon move through from June to September, while Coho Salmon peak from July into October. For Chinook, trolling with flashers, cut-plug herring, trolling spoons, or hootchies works the water column above the pinnacle, with mooching whole or cut-plug herring and jigging metal or leadhead jigs as follow-up tactics. Coho respond to trolling flashers with hoochies, trolling spoons, or cut-plug herring, and hold near the same rock edges where tide funnels bait across the hump.
