What others are saying about ReelCaster Pro
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.

University Point is a mixed-bottom drop-off in Seattle's DFO subarea 10, dropping through depths of 170 to 430 feet along a mid-exposure edge. The structure draws Chinook Salmon at their peak from July through September and Coho Salmon across a long window from June into October, with both species most productively worked by trolling cut-plug herring, whole herring, flashers with hoochies, or trolling spoons. Lingcod hold on the rockier sections and come strongest in late winter and spring, February through April, responding to metal jigs and leadhead jigs with swimbaits fished tight to the bottom. Black Rockfish stay active across most of the year and take metal jigs, leadhead jigs, and soft plastics, while Pacific Halibut move onto the deeper reaches from March through August for drift jigging over the sloping bottom. The depth range across this drop-off suits jigging and drift presentations that track the changing contour.
