What this page answers
This page answers: what are the tide and conditions doing near me right now? It reads your position once, in your browser, finds the three closest fisheries in the Tides & Tails coastal guide, and loads each one's live readings — next high and low tide, water temperature, wind and gusts, cloud cover and moon phase.
How results are ranked
Waters are ranked by straight-line distance from your position to the centre of each fishery in our catalog — the same 38 coastal zones the location guide covers, from the Texas border to Maryland plus California.
Distances are measured to the centre of each water as our catalog records it, not to a ramp or a pier. Live readings come from NOAA CO-OPS tide stations, the National Weather Service and Open-Meteo, fetched when you open the page — for recreation only, never for navigation.
