Adding catches to logs

This guide covers how to add catches to a log, whether you want the exact details on one fish or a quick bundle for a big session.

Steps

1. Open a log and tap to add a catch.
2. Pick a species from the picker. Tap the star next to any species to mark it a favorite. Favorites sort to the top, so the species you catch most are quick to find.
3. Set the quantity. Leave it at 1 for a single fish, or bump it up to log a bundle, like "10 trout," in one entry instead of ten.
4. Tag the tackle. Pick up to three from the Tackle field, right on the catch row: live bait, cut bait, soft plastic, jig, topwater, spoon, hard bait, spinnerbait, fly, popping cork, Carolina rig, bottom rig, free line, or other.
5. Add details, if you want them. Tap the catch to expand it and add an exact length and weight. Skip this for a quick bundle entry.
6. Add more catches to the same log as you go, or remove one if you added it by mistake.

Tackle carries over between catches

Each new catch row starts from the tackle on the row before it. Set it once at the start of a long session on one rig and every fish after it comes in already tagged.

Every row stays independently editable, so the moment you switch rigs you change that row and the ones after it follow the new setting. Nothing carries over between separate logs.

Catches you logged before tackle existed simply show none. Nothing was lost, and there's nothing you need to go back and fill in.

Common questions

Can I log one catch in detail and another as a quick count, in the same visit? Yes. Each catch you add is its own entry, so a detailed redfish and a "10 trout" bundle can sit in the same log.

Do I have to pick the tackle again for every fish? No. Each new catch starts from the one before it, so a long session on one rig is set once. Change any row when you switch, and the rows after it follow.

How do favorites help? They keep the species you catch most at the top of the picker, so you're not scrolling a long list every time.
