Most apps show a number. PrimeBite shows the work: research sources and different math for each rated species. Tap any rating to see why.
Know if today's worth the drive before you load the truck.
PrimeBite gives you 1-to-5 fish activity ratings for 9 rated species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Muskie, Northern Pike, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi-mahi, Black Marlin, and Atlantic Blue Marlin. Each rated species has its own math. Other fish use a separate Solunar Windows baseline, so you can still log them and see their windows. Open a rating to see the drivers that applied and how they moved the score.
Three things make PrimeBite different.
1) THE RATING IS HONEST.
Tough days look tough. The scale is simple: 1.0 is the model's worst conditions, 2.5 is average, and 5.0 is its best. It does not promise a catch. Each rated species has its own evidence base instead of one formula for every fish.
Largemouth Bass also has What To Throw: a ranked lure lineup based on today's conditions, with reasons, how-to details, and checked source notes.
2) THE WEATHER PAGE IS BUILT FOR ANGLERS.
Check temperature, wind, rain, visibility, UV, cloud cover, pressure trends, tides, marine conditions, and air quality. Offshore Maps show sea temperature at no charge. Pro adds currents, chlorophyll, sea-level anomaly, water clarity, and Yellowfin/Mahi hot zones that show which water looks best. Tap any spot to read the data there.
3) THE LOGBOOK FINDS YOUR PATTERNS.
Save catches, trips, photos, conditions, gear, and notes. Catch entries can include a 7-day weather lead-up when data is available. After enough catches, PrimeBite finds patterns in your own logs. On iPhone, selected older photos can be scanned on-device and saved as past catches when a fish, date, and location are found.
A few things you won't find:
• No ads
• No public social feed
• No paywall on today's rating
Free to download. PrimeBite Pro adds the 30-day forecast, earlier rating alerts with up to 30 days of notice, and premium Offshore Map layers. The store shows current prices and any trial eligibility before purchase.
Each rated species lists its research sources in the app.

I’ve only used this app for large mouth bass fishing. It seems very accurate to the ratings. I recommend this app to all my fishing buds and anyone else that wants to time their fishing when the bite is good! Blessings and peace.
Developer Response
Appreciate the 5 stars and the recommendation to your buddies. Bass is where the ratings started, so it's great to hear they're holding up on the water. Blessings to you too, and tight lines.
Easy to use

Super easy to use, like how easy it is to select species and location. Excited to see what other species will be added in the future
Developer Response
Appreciate the 5 stars, and glad it's easy to use. Species and location picking simple was the goal from day one. More species are on the way, so stay tuned. Tight lines.

High quality, very realistic, caught a 9lbs largemouth out of Clinton Lake today! Will be using again
Pretty good
Idbebsuxb
Pretty good app but more fish should be added to the forecast like peacock bass, mangrove snapper
Developer Response
Appreciate the 5 stars and the honest note. More species is the plan. I add the next ones based on what people ask for most, so I've got your peacock bass and mangrove snapper noted. Keep the requests coming. It's exactly how I decide what's next. Tight lines.
Not sure what to throw today? PrimeBite has a better place to start.
Largemouth Bass now gets a ranked lure lineup built around today’s conditions, with reasons and checked sources behind every pick.
Also new:
• Worldwide tides and sharper Weather charts
• Clearer Hot Zones with stronger color differences
• Celsius and 24-hour time options
• Hourly Walleye ratings
• Scan selected older iPhone photos to save catches
• New species artwork
• Better Logbook sharing privacy and bug fixes
We’re moving every current species to Engine V2 so ratings are easier to prove, explain, and trust before adding more species.
