Built by anglers who got tired of guessing. Bushwhack reads your log, the conditions you fished in, and the patterns that hide in between.
Every angler asks the same question on the drive home: why was today good? Was it the fly, the time of day, the moon, the cold front that rolled through Tuesday? A notebook can't answer that. A spreadsheet collapses under it. Most apps were either too thin to be useful or too cluttered to open after a long day on the water.
So we built the tool we kept wishing existed — fast to log into between drifts, smart enough to pull weather and moon data on its own, and patient enough to read a season's worth of catches and tell us what the data was actually saying.
We shared it with friends. They shared it with theirs. A few thousand catches later, Bushwhack is what you see today.
Most apps store your catches. Bushwhack reads them.
Your Fishing IQ, MVP gear and the moon, pressure, and style patterns hiding in your log — the honest read on what works for you.
Most apps celebrate catches. Skunk Lab digs into the days you got skunked so you stop walking into the same conditions.
Solunar timing, weather shifts and pressure patterns — checked against the conditions that have actually worked for you.
Every spot you've ever fished, with its own dossier. What produces, when, and how it stacks up against the rest of your year.
Weather, water temp, barometric pressure, moon phase and season auto-fill on every entry. You log the catch. Bushwhack handles the rest.
200+ badges, friends, leaderboards and a year-end Recap that turns a season into a story worth re-reading.
The core log is free, forever. Logging catches, saving spots, tracking gear, earning badges, following friends — all yours, no card, no trial, no clock.
Premium pays for the analytical layer: Forecast, Atlas, Insights, Skunk Lab and Microscope deep tools, lifetime filtering, leaderboards, unlimited photos. The kind of tools that need months of data underneath them to be worth anything.
We're not VC-backed. We don't sell your data. We don't license your spots to anyone. Bushwhack is funded by the anglers who decide it's worth paying for — and by absolutely no one else.
Track hatches, fly patterns, and which bug actually earns its keep on your home water.
Hold onto the details that slip away between trips so every outing picks up where the last one left off.
If you've ever exported a spreadsheet to ask a question your app couldn't answer, you'll be at home here.
