Straight answers about how IQ.Fishing actually works — species identification, offline maps, catch predictions, and tournament verification.
An intelligent fishing companion app. Photograph a catch and it automatically identifies the species, reads the GPS and timestamp from the photo, and pairs it with the tide, weather, and solunar conditions at that moment. Over time it builds a predictive model of your best spots, and it includes a tournament platform with automated catch verification.
It's not a measure of a fish's intelligence — it refers to the intelligence layer the app builds around your fishing. IQ.Fishing combines your personal catch history with real-time environmental data (tide phase, barometric pressure, solunar period, moon phase) to score how likely you are to catch fish at any saved spot on any future date. The more you log, the sharper the predictions get.
On-device AI reads the photo, automatically extracts the GPS location and timestamp from the image's EXIF data, identifies the species, and estimates length and weight — with no manual entry required.
Yes. Nautical charts, your saved spots, and your full catch log are all fully accessible offline, since the best fishing spots rarely have good reception.
Pick any future date and IQ.Fishing scores the forecast conditions against your personal catch history, returning a color-coded probability score for every spot you've saved. The model improves with every trip you log.
Tide phase, barometric pressure trend, wind, solunar score, and moon phase are all fetched automatically and permanently paired with each catch — no separate apps to check.
IQ.Fishing is currently available on the App Store for iOS. Android support is coming soon.
TrueCatch is IQ.Fishing's automated tournament verification system. Every tournament submission goes through seven validation layers, including EXIF timestamp checks, GPS location verification, AI species recognition, and a measurement-instrument check, so results are fair without manual disputes.
