Questions.

Keep Fishing is an app for Pacific Northwest anglers. It brings water conditions, weather, tides, fishing reports, private trip notes, custom checklists, and a safety check-in plan into one place.

PNW anglers who already check gauges, forecasts, tides, marine conditions, stocking schedules, run timing, hatchery returns, and old notes before deciding where to go. It is built for rivers, streams, lakes, bays, and ocean days where conditions change fast and spot notes are better kept private.

Yes. Journal entries, private pins, and saved-water notes are private by default. Sharing is per-entry and explicit.

No. Private means your journal and spots are readable only by you unless you choose to share a specific entry. Your records can sync between your devices and stay backed up without being posted publicly or used for advertising. The full details are in the Privacy Policy.

Sharing is your choice, entry by entry. Your journal stays private by default. Field reports and public reports stay separate from your personal spots and notes.

No. Your journal entries are visible only to you unless you choose to share a specific one.

USGS stream gauges, NOAA weather, NOAA tide tables and currents, NWS National Water Prediction Service river forecasts, DART and Fish Passage Center fish-passage and smolt reports, state or tribal stocking schedules, hatchery returns, return estimates, and field reports. Every reading or report shows where it came from.

For each spot you save, you set condition ranges for flow, temperature, turbidity, and depth: too low, low, in shape, high, or too high. The app shows where current conditions sit against those ranges and saves past trip notes beside the conditions from that day.

Yes. Build separate reusable checklists for leaving home, getting set up at the water, leaving the water, and getting back to the truck. Start from the default gear and safety lists, then add the boat, shuttle, bait, PFDs, kids, dog, or whatever the day needs.

The app shows readings, forecasts, fishing reports where available, and when conditions move into the ranges you set. Readings can lag, forecasts can miss fast changes, and reports can go stale. What to do with that information is still an angler call.

Trip Watch is designed to message saved safety contacts with overdue-trip details and last known location when a check-in is missed. It is not an emergency service and does not guarantee rescue, dispatch, or SMS delivery.

Not by itself. Queuing actions offline is planned, but overdue check-in messages need a working cell signal to go out. No satellite integration is published yet. If you're heading somewhere remote and solo, carry a PLB or satellite messenger regardless of what app you're using.

Field reports are treated as a separate, non-authoritative source. Your private spots and journal notes are visible only to you and stay separate from public reports.

Join the email list. Notes on covered waters and product updates will go by email.

Offline support is planned for Journal entries, photos, voice notes, and trip check-ins. Live gauge readings require signal.

Keep Fishing is PNW-first. Some sources have national coverage, but the value is specific to PNW waters, regional coverage, and regional fishing reports. If you fish outside the region, check the coverage list before counting on the first version.

Bug reporting will be available through product support.
