## What is HookLedger?

Your best fishing spots and memories belong to you.

HookLedger is a private fishing journal and catch map for anglers who want a clear record of every day on the water—without profiles, followers, or a social feed. Drop a fishing spot, log the catch, attach photos, and build a personal history you can return to season after season.

MAP YOUR OWN WATER
• Save lakes, rivers, and favorite fishing locations
• Use current GPS, move a pin, enter coordinates, or save without a location
• See fish, saved-spot, personal-best, and clustered map markers
• Tap any marker for a quick catch or spot preview
• Choose light, dark, satellite, or hybrid map styles

LOG THE DETAILS THAT MATTER
• Record species, length, weight, and number caught
• Mark fish as released or kept
• Save lure, bait, notes, date, and time
• Capture current weather and wind when available
• Add separate fish, lure, and spot photos
• Use imperial or metric measurements

A JOURNAL BUILT FOR ANGLERS
• Browse photo-forward field-journal entries
• Search species, water, lure, and notes
• Filter by species, lake, date, lure, personal bests, released, or kept
• Open a catch to view its complete details and exact map location
• See every catch recorded at the same spot
• Edit or delete your own records at any time

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
HookLedger does not require an account and has no advertising, analytics, tracking, public profile, or social feed. Your catches, notes, and photos are stored locally on your device and are not uploaded. A rounded coordinate is sent to Open-Meteo only when current weather is requested. Archives leave the app only when you explicitly export them.

KEEP YOUR HISTORY PORTABLE
Export a versioned HookLedger archive containing your spots, catches, notes, measurements, and photos. Import it later to restore records that are not already in your journal.

From the first fish of the season to a lifetime personal best, HookLedger gives every catch a place in your private fishing history.
