DESIGNED FOR THE FIELD
Automatically saves recent forecasts, tides, and reports to take your data off grid! View your waypoints & catches on the offline map. Log everything, anywhere, data will sync when you reconnect.
Full Features:
• Bookmark spots with target species, method, and water type. Every report and filter uses what you set.
• Log catches in under a minute. Pick a photo; location and conditions auto-fill.
• Bulk-import your backlog 50 photos at a time, auto-grouped by time and GPS*
• Filter waypoints and catches by species, region, more!
• High resolution basemaps: hybrid satellite, terrain, satellite, streets. Includes layers for public lands, contours, hydrography (free) and 3D terrain*
• See real-time conditions. Guidebox pulls live conditions from USGS, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, NOAA (tides, buoys & water forecasts), the National Weather Service, and Water Survey of Canada — 14,000+ stream gauges, 3,400+ tide stations, wave buoys, NWS flood forecasts, and full US + Canada hydrography from USGS 3DHP & NHN
• Fish-stocking data for 37 U.S. states and 7 Canadian provinces — over 27,000 stocking locations — sourced from state and provincial fish & wildlife agencies, refreshed automatically* (data varies by state)
• Reports combine weather, pressure, gauges, and tides with your species and water preferences alongside established scientific literature to predict fish behavior and activity*
• Get tactics tailored to your bookmark. Species-specific recommendations based on real conditions — not a generic article.
• Index your year of fishing. Heatmaps, species collections, personal bests, and 36 achievement medals built from your catch logs.
