This scores whether it is workable out there, not whether anything will bite. Nobody can forecast that, and the apps that claim to are guessing.

Reading this honestly
The buoy is 0 miles from this gauge, which is stated for a reason: sea state at a buoy offshore can be nothing like conditions in a sheltered channel, and a water temperature reading a river mouth away may be several degrees out.
The fishability score is about wind, seas and warnings — whether a small boat can work comfortably and safely. It is not a bite forecast, and the tide times below are not one either. Tide stage matters to a great many species and every angler has a theory about which stage; we are not going to convert those theories into a number and present it as data.
