The Complete UK Fishing App — Everything an Angler Needs
The app that covers every part of your fishing — before, during and after every session. Live maps, solunar forecasts, catch tracker, session logs and a community of UK anglers. All free.
Why UK Anglers Choose fishON!
Most fishing apps do one thing well. fishON! does everything. Built by anglers for anglers — combining the tools you actually use in a single, free app. Live fishing maps show you venues across the UK with species data and community catch reports. The solunar forecast engine calculates peak feeding windows using barometric pressure, moon phases and tidal data. The catch tracker logs every fish with photo, weight, location and conditions. Session logs build your personal fishing history. And the community feed keeps you connected to what is being caught right now, across the country. One download. Everything covered.
Live Fishing Maps — Find Where Fish Are Right Now
fishON! fishing maps pull together venue data, GPS coordinates, species information and real-time community catch reports. Search by your location to see active venues nearby — filter by species, access type or day ticket availability. Each venue shows recent catch reports from the community, species historically caught, and user-submitted photos. Mark your own private spots and they stay completely private — only you can see them. The mapping system works offline too, so you are covered in areas with poor signal.
Fishing Forecasts That Actually Predict Bites
The fishON! forecast engine combines solunar theory, barometric pressure trends, water temperature and tidal data into a single bite probability score for any UK location. It shows you the best two-hour windows across each day — so you can plan exactly when to be on the bank. A 5-day forecast lets you compare days ahead and identify the strongest fishing window for your target species. This is not generic weather data — it is fishing-specific prediction, weighted by species and calibrated for UK conditions.
Catch Tracker — Build Your Personal Fishing Record
Log every catch with photo, species, weight, length, bait used, rig, location and weather conditions. fishON! automatically links each catch to its environmental data — pressure, temperature, moon phase, tide — so over time you build a data-rich record that reveals what actually works for you at your venues. Personal bests are tracked automatically. Share selected catches to the community feed or keep everything private. Your fishing history is yours, searchable, filterable and always accessible.
Free Forever — No Subscription, No Premium Tier
fishON! is free. Not free-with-a-catch, not free for the basic version — genuinely free for all features, permanently. Maps, forecasts, catch tracker, session logs, match mode, community feed — all free on iOS and Android. The app is funded through optional advertising space sold to fishing-related businesses. You never pay, and you never hit a paywall.
Refining Your Strategy Through Environmental Data Logging
Consistency in UK angling often hinges on your ability to correlate local environmental shifts with historical success. While many anglers rely on intuition, our system allows you to build a long-term personal fishing record that tracks granular variables such as atmospheric pressure, wind direction, and lunar cycles against your specific catch history. By recording the exact conditions during both blank sessions and red-letter days, you begin to identify patterns unique to your local waters. For instance, you might notice that a particular pit produces better results when the pressure is falling, or that a specific river stretch fishes best during a specific moon phase. Automating your environmental data collection ensures that you don't have to scramble to remember the details after the rod is packed away. Instead, you can focus on fine-tuning your terminal tackle choices or bait applications based on hard evidence rather than guesswork. Over seasons, this data transforms into a predictive tool, helping you decide which venues to target as conditions shift, ultimately increasing your time spent with a bent rod.
Building Local Knowledge Through Community Engagement
Angling is often a solitary pursuit, yet your success is frequently tied to the collective knowledge of the local community. Building a network of like-minded UK anglers allows you to stay informed about evolving water conditions, such as recent restocking, weed growth, or changes in access rules. Our platform facilitates this by helping you connect with others who frequent the same day ticket venues, fostering a shared understanding of successful tactics and seasonal changes. When you share your session highlights, you contribute to a broader pool of insight that helps everyone interpret how fish are behaving in the current weather window. This interaction goes beyond mere socialising; it is a practical way to keep track of site-specific handling guidelines and conservation measures that protect the sport for the future. By participating in this digital community, you gain a clearer picture of regional trends, from the impact of the coarse fish close season to the best methods for landing specific species. Engaging with your peers provides the context needed to make informed decisions on the bank, ensuring your sessions are both ethical and productive.
