Hardwicke Island, BC fishing conditions

Weather and water snapshot

Forecast snapshot assembled Nov 2, 12:26 p.m. GMT-7. Times use America/Vancouver. Saved source values are shown immediately; missing readings remain unavailable. Check source times before planning an outing.

The best supported daylight fishing window is 3:00–5:59 PM, for 2 hours 59 minutes. Fishing is 5.5/10 (Fair), with separate bite potential 4.6/10 (Fair). The low tide at 3:11 PM provides a useful tide change, though regional current data are unavailable and contribute neutrally. Winds run about 5–6 knots through this period, with 14–15-knot gusts, dry conditions, and temperatures easing from 8.8 C to 7.7 C. The main solunar major period was earlier, 7:01–9:01 AM; the next begins after dark at 7:01 PM, so it is a timing cue only and not a reason to extend a daylight outing. Morning conditions were limited by fog or very low visibility. The 10:00 AM–noon fishing window was 4/10 (Fair) and has already passed. Visibility remains the key caution for all water users, and a captain must confirm departure conditions. No wave forecast is available for this location. For paddlers, the available daylight window is noon–5:59 PM, rated 4/10 (Fair). Wind limits paddling conditions, despite the relatively modest sustained wind, because gusts reach around 17 knots earlier in the afternoon. Keep routes conservative and avoid committing to exposed crossings if visibility is poor. Diving has its best supported daylight window from noon–5:59 PM at 5.9/10 (Fair). Surface visibility is limited by fog or very low visibility; the 9.8 C satellite water temperature also calls for appropriate cold-water protection. Atmospheric visibility does not indicate underwater clarity. Boating is 5/10 (Fair) from 3:00–5:59 PM, while sailing is 4.7/10 (Fair) from noon–2:00 PM. Both need careful visibility checks, and there is no local wave forecast to fill in the sea-state picture. Wildlife viewing has a 3:00–5:00 PM window rated 7.9/10 (Good). For shoreline exploring, 2:00–4:00 PM is rated 8.9/10 (Excellent), centered around the 3:11 PM low tide. Tide timing does not confirm access, crossing safety, or harvesting permission. Light rain is forecast from 9:00 PM onward, outside daylight. The rest of the week carries high precipitation chances, generally 77–94%, with no multi-day marine outlook available.
