Every hour of the day, scored.

A 0–100 bite score for your species, hour by hour — and a guide you can ask what to throw, where to fish it, and which evening this week is actually worth the drive.

The number first. The reasoning right behind it.

Conditions, lakes, a week of planning and your own logbook — all read by one guide that knows the water you fish.

Conditions

Every hour of the day, scored.

Weather, water temperature, barometric pressure and how that species actually behaves all roll into a single 0–100 score — then break out hour by hour so you can see the window instead of guessing at it.

  • The next good window, with the time and the score it hits
  • Tap any hour for sky, air, wind and pressure at that hour
  • Water temperature from a live gauge where one exists

The Guide

Ask what to throw. Get an answer.

Lure, depth, retrieve and which water to fish — with the reasoning behind the call and the inputs it used. The Guide's read sits on every screen in the app, not just this one.

  • Answers built from today's conditions and the waters near you
  • Every answer shows what it was working from
  • Follow-ups in context — rod weight, topwater instead, why not there

  • Ranges from two days out to the rest of the season
  • Drill into any day for its full hour-by-hour breakdown
