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
STRUCTURE
Rock Outcrop

Duwamish Head Shoreline is a rock outcrop on the West Seattle waterfront within DFO subarea 10, where the shoreline drops toward Elliott Bay's deeper channels. Coho Salmon move through the area from June to October, with Chinook Salmon peaking July through September and Rockfish available across the full year. Anglers targeting the salmon runs work the water with trolling using flashers, hoochies, trolling spoons, and cut-plug herring, while mooching whole herring or jigging metal jigs cover the supporting approaches. Rockfish hold close to the rocky structure and respond to jigging with metal jigs, leadhead jigs, swimbaits, and shrimp flies. Bait fishing with herring, squid, or sand shrimp works the same outcrop for the resident fish.
