📊 Historical Data
Should you go fishing on the BC coast today?
BC Fishing Weather turns the marine forecast into a straight answer. For 57 fishing areas and tide stations from Juan de Fuca Strait to Haida Gwaii, it reads live wind, waves, tide, pressure, moon and time of day and scores each spot out of 100 — then shows the wind field on the map, the tide curve, the tidal-current turns at the passes, and the day’s best fishing window.
What makes it different
- Forecast checked against the buoys. Every reading is compared with the real NDBC and Environment Canada buoys in the water, and each buoy page keeps a running record of how close the model has actually been — the one thing the forecast mirrors do not show.
- Real regulations, by area and species. DFO tidal limits, sizes and today’s closures are read from DFO’s own pages and refreshed daily, per management area and per species.
- Tides and tidal currents from CHS. High/low times and the slack-and-max current turns at the passes, with a wind-against-current safety warning.
- Honest data. Nothing is invented: where a value is missing the site says so rather than filling in a plausible number. How each score is built is published on the page.
Data comes from Open-Meteo, the Canadian Hydrographic Service, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and NOAA/ECCC buoys. See the about page for how it works, or the live data status.
