All Your Fishing Features
in One App
You've got one app for logging catches, another for finding spots, a group chat for fishing buddies, and a folder of photos you will never find again. What if one app did the whole job?
Explore the features below, or just download it. It's free.
The core features. Free to use, with Pro optional.
Each feature is designed to solve a real problem for hobbyist anglers, not tournament pros with bass boats.
Everything a weekend angler needs
All of the above is free, including unlimited catch logging with no cap.
GilledIt Pro is optional, at $5.00 a month billed yearly ($59.99) or $9.99 monthly, after a 7-day free trial. It adds AI catch reviews, the conditions behind each fish, a bite forecast built from your own history, your patterns, private setups, sessions and water notes, and a Pro angler badge. It does not change how much you can log. What Pro adds, in full.
Catch Log
Remember what lure you were throwing the last time you caught that 8 lb largemouth. Quick Cast lets you log a catch in under 30 seconds, before your buddy even nets the fish.

Why all-in-one?
One app instead of five
Weekend anglers do not want to learn five different apps. GilledIt combines catch logging, social sharing, maps, marketplace, challenges, messaging, and stats in a single download. Fewer apps, more fishing.
Built for everyday anglers, not tournament pros
156 US species, a USD marketplace, and live pressure trends. GilledIt is built for the angler launching their kayak before work, not the bass-boat tournament circuit.
Works offline, because fish don't wait for signal
The best spots are always in dead zones. Log catches with full species autocomplete, photos, and GPS coordinates even without cellular signal. Your data syncs automatically when you're back on Wi-Fi.
How GilledIt compares to other fishing apps
Most fishing apps are paywall-heavy. GilledIt keeps the core free for American anglers, bass, walleye, trout, panfish, and saltwater, with Pro optional.

A comprehensive fishing app should include: 1) Catch logging with species ID, photos, and GPS, 2) A social feed to share catches with other anglers, 3) Fishing statistics and personal best tracking, 4) An interactive map to find fishing spots, 5) A marketplace to buy and sell tackle, 6) Challenges and leaderboards for friendly competition, and 7) Messaging to connect with fishing buddies.

Yes, GilledIt offers free catch logging with 156 US species autocomplete, GPS auto-fill for location, a photo gallery supporting up to 5 photos per catch, gear tracking for bait, rod, and reel, and full offline mode. Fishbrain puts its catch log's useful parts behind Pro. GilledIt does not: logging is unlimited and free for everyone, with no cap. GilledIt Pro is optional and adds analysis on top (AI catch reviews, a bite forecast from your own history, and your patterns), never logging volume.
GilledIt is the most complete all-in-one fishing app for American anglers, combining catch logging, a social feed, stats dashboard, interactive map, marketplace, weekly challenges, and messaging in a single free app. Unlike Fishbrain (paywalled stats) or FishAngler (no marketplace), GilledIt is built for American anglers with 156 US species, a USD marketplace, and automatic weather capture.
Many fishing apps require an internet connection, but GilledIt works fully offline. You can log catches with species autocomplete, add up to 5 photos, and record GPS coordinates even without mobile signal. Your data syncs automatically when you reconnect. This is particularly useful for American anglers fishing remote lakes, canals, and coastal marks with poor reception.
Popular catch-sharing apps include Fishbrain, FishAngler, and Catchagram. GilledIt offers the most complete social features for American anglers: an algorithmic For You feed, a Following tab for your network, Instagram-style stories, likes, comments, @mentions, and a weekly Catch of the Week spotlight. It combines social sharing with catch logging and stats in one app.
