Do a web search. Duh. Today at 12:15pm the tide was super high in the canal. You do the math. ;)

If you have a palm pilot you can down load a program called "Tide Tool".
It works great.

For tide around Vancouver, this is the one I use. It's very easy to read, with useful graphs. :)

Thanks guys
 there is plenty of sites and some i like better than others. 
 Does it take long for the tide to push up as far as mission bridge or is it pretty much the  same time as Vancouver?

There is considerable delay in the tides when going up the Fraser River. From Point Atkinson to Mission is just a little over 3½ hours difference.

It's just simple math. During Steely season - add three hours for the Canal from high tide @ Point Atkinson, bait up and cast. Mister Steely will be speaking to you shortly. Honestly, it's just that.
