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.

STRUCTURE
Drop Off
Mid

Point Wells is a mixed-bottom drop-off in Seattle's DFO subarea 10, where the seafloor falls away through depths of 80 to 200 feet along a mid-exposure edge. Chinook Salmon move through in the summer, peaking July through September, while Coho Salmon hold from June into October and Lingcod come on strong in January and again February through April. Trolling cut-plug herring, whole herring, or flashers with hoochies works the salmon along the drop, and mooching cut-plug herring is a productive supporting approach when fish stack over the break. Lingcod respond to jigging metal jigs and leadhead jigs with swimbaits over the mixed bottom, with live greenling or live herring as an alternative on the structure. Pacific Halibut show March through August, and Black Rockfish stay active across most of the year, taking metal jigs and soft plastics worked near the bottom.
