CatchWindow fishing intelligence

Neah Bay, WA Daily Water Report — August 28, 2026

Today in Neah Bay, the water's calling, but it's not exactly a siren song. With fishing scoring a decent 6.5/10 and diving at a respectable 6.8/10, these might be your best bets for the day. The full moon tonight could give a slight edge to those evening anglers, especially during the solunar major period from 12:28 to 14:28. However, the lack of tide data means you'll have to keep an eye on the water levels yourself. The waves are a gentle 0.68 meters with a leisurely period of 8.8 seconds, making for a mellow surf session, scoring a modest 6/10. It's not epic, but it should suffice for a relaxed paddle. Winds are keeping things mild at 6 knots from the WSW, gusting up to 9 knots, which is manageable for both sailors and boaters, each scoring just over 6/10 today. Visibility is quite good at 12.2 km, though the damp air and full cloud cover might make it feel a bit drearier than it is. Water temperatures are sitting at 14.9°C, and while that's a bit warmer than average, it's still nothing to write home about. The chlorophyll levels are high, indicating a bloom, but don't count on that translating into a feeding frenzy without further signs. Looking ahead, the weather is set to cool slightly over the next few days, with a chance of showers increasing significantly by September 2nd. Wave heights will also start to rise, peaking mid-week, which could improve surfing conditions but may challenge smaller crafts. If you're seeking a memorable experience today, consider diving. With calm seas and good underwater conditions, it's your best bet for a peaceful excursion beneath the waves.
