Can Getfished tell if fish are biting at Rochester, today?

No. Because no forecast can truthfully guarantee whether fish are biting at a specific spot right now. Getfished shows the current fishing conditions instead: tide movement, solunar timing, weather, wind, pressure, marine conditions and fishing report, derived, species history.

Use this information to make informed decisions about where to fish, and to compare conditions across nearby locations. Try different locations, different bait and lures. Remember to use berley and try to target a specific fish species in season.
