Anyone used ‘Swellscanner’ before? If so, did you find it to be accurate?

Turns out my nicest ocean day of 2024 fell on Thanksgiving, of all days.

I launched from Fogarty. A lot of sand has filled in the cove here, so it's more of a traditional surf launch on high tide. At low tide, it's more the typical steep beach situation. That being said, the 2-3 ft swell made launch and landing easy-peasy.

The bite started out really slow, but picked up significantly by 1100. Lingcod bite was excellent, and most of them were over 30 inches. Had a lot of fun pulling on lings til I harvested 36 and 38 inchers. The rockfish bite on the outer reef was spotty: some schools wouldn't bite anything, while others were very grabby. However, the shallow-water rockfish were biting well. Caught a nice variety of blacks, deacons, and yellowtails in 30-40 ft on a jigging spoon. The spoon tricked a cabezon and a nice kelp greenling as well.

Best lingcod bite was in 70-90 ft. I didn't fish deeper than 100, but I imagine it was great out in the deeper stuff too. Rockfish, it was best to fish tight to shore in 30-40 ft.

It was one of those days where it's real hard to leave! If it's the last time I get out on the ocean for the year, it was great to wrap it up on a beautiful ocean and excellent bite.
