01The Wedge

The intel other apps
charge you for.

Solunar majors and minors, tide extremes, pressure trend and a ten-day outlook — pinned to your mark and refreshed by the hour. CAST turns those signals into a clear fishing window, then keeps every forecast connected to the catches in your own field log.

02The FishKey

Name any fish
in six field marks.

Photograph the catch, or answer six questions — water, body shape, fins, markings, mouth, size. The key narrows 43 species the way a naturalist would, and shows its working at every step. A taxonomic key, not a black box.

03The Chart Room

Every shore, bank
and pier — tapped.

More than 235,000 named waters across Britain, Europe and North America — and then the map, which doesn't stop there. It reads the coastline, lake shores, river banks, piers and slipways around you and puts a fishable mark on every one, named or not. Tap any of them for the live score, the rules, and every fish that swims there.
