Bushwhack exists because scribbling in a notebook wasn't cutting it. We needed a way to see what was actually working — and what wasn't.
Bushwhack started the way most side projects do — with a problem nobody was solving well enough. After years of fly fishing and trying every app, spreadsheet, and notebook system out there, nothing stuck. They were either too simple to be useful or so bloated they felt like work.
What I actually wanted was a way to look back at a day on the water and understand why it was good. Was it the fly? The time of day? The weather? The moon phase? A notebook can't answer those questions. But the right data, organized the right way, can.
So I built the tool I wished I had. A fishing journal that logs the details that matter, pulls in weather and moon data automatically, and shows you the patterns hiding in your own fishing history. Then I shared it with friends. Then they shared it with theirs.
Most apps let you log a catch. Bushwhack shows you why you caught it — and how to do it again.
Weather, barometric pressure, moon phase, and season are pulled in automatically. You just log the catch.
Over 100 achievements to earn. Personal bests, seasonal challenges, weather warriors — fishing should be fun to track.
Pin your locations, see your stats per spot, and remember exactly where you were standing when it all came together.
Bushwhack is free to use and always will be. You can log catches, track locations, manage gear, and follow friends without paying a dime. Premium unlocks deeper analytics, unlimited photos, and yearly filtering — the kind of tools that help you see the bigger picture over seasons and years.
