Best window depends on the next tide turn
The app now uses live wind, tide timing, surf, pressure, rain, and water temperature instead of random forecast changes.

White bucktail
Conservative pick for changing surf because it casts well, holds depth, and matches the live model’s current wind/surf read.

Checking Open-Meteo, National Weather Service, and NOAA CO-OPS...
Comparing Open-Meteo with National Weather Service.
NOAA CO-OPS provides authoritative tide timing and live water observations where station coverage is available.
Open-Meteo Marine provides wave, swell, sea surface temperature, and current estimates.
Live Report
Regional species activity
Striped Bass
Activity rising fast
Live conditions currently favor bass-style surf tactics when wind, wave height, and the next tide line up.
--live bite index
NOAAtide verified
NWSweather checked
Bluefish
Schools moving east
Best treated as a secondary opportunity unless bait schools are visible or birds are working.
Fluke
Fair in deeper cuts
More sensitive to clean water and calmer surf, so the model reduces the index when wave height rises.

Live Bite Map
Local surf-fishing zone model
Surf-fishing-only confidence based on live weather, tide timing, beach/inlet structure, and your uploaded local catches.
Surf Location
Choose a beach zone
Use your location to search public map data for nearby beach access, then blend those spots with live surf conditions.
Predictions are limited to surf fishing from beaches, inlet edges, and the wash.
Nearest Surf Spots
Use your location to rank nearby beaches
Distance stays in this browser. Spots are ranked by distance and current bite model, not exact GPS pins.

Catch Submission
Turn a catch into better intelligence
Photo check uses surf species knowledge, your optional species guess, length, lure, and live conditions. Production can use real vision AI.
Personal AI Coach
Ask condition and beach questions
Fishing AI
Ask the coach
Ask what to throw, where to start, or how the live conditions affect tonight's bite.
CastSightAI Coach
Ask me anything about tonight's conditions. If the local AI server is running with an OpenAI key, I will answer with real AI using the live bite context.
Surf Cast Read
Upload a 30-second wave video
The local tool combines the video clip with live wind, tide, and surf data to suggest where to cast from the beach.
Cast read waiting for video
Upload a beach-facing surf clip. Keep it around 30 seconds and show the wave sets, wash, and any bars or cuts.
Local prototype: this estimates from video metadata plus live conditions. Real wave vision would require a backend vision model.
Gear Locker
Scan, save, and ask from your actual tackle
Save the gear you own, scan a tackle-box photo, then ask the AI what to use for the beach and conditions you are fishing.
Tackle Box Scan
Drop a photo
Use a tackle-box picture to get a lure pick from your likely gear. The AI can combine this with live weather, surf, and selected beach.
Recommended starter: White bucktail
Upload a photo and I will pick from the likely lure types in your box.
My Gear Locker
Track what you fish with
Save rods, reels, line, lures, bait, and notes so the coach can make picks from gear you actually own.
Gear AI
Ask from your locker
Ask what to throw based on your saved gear, uploaded tackle scan, selected surf location, weather, tide, and waves.
Gear AI ready
Save or scan gear, then ask for a setup that fits the current conditions and beach.
Your gear locker helps the AI avoid recommending things you do not own.
Once real catch logs exist, this becomes a measured personal pattern.
Personal timing needs more real catch logs.
The coach will become more accurate as actual trips are logged.
