## What is Moving Water?

Moving Water tells you when the fish will move — and where.

It reads live tide predictions from NOAA for any of 3,499 US stations, works out the solunar windows from sun and moon math, and turns all of it into one number: how good the water is right now for the fish you're after.

THE TIDE CLOCK
A 24-hour dial showing the day's tide, where you are in it, and the windows worth fishing. Flooding, falling, or dead slack — at a glance.

BEST SPOT NEARBY
Tide timing shifts across a bay. At any moment one piece of water is ripping while another sits slack. Set a radius around your pin and Moving Water ranks the water around you, so you fish the spot that's moving.

PLAN THE WEEK
Seven days of outlooks for your spot. Tide predictions are computed, not forecast — next Saturday is exactly as accurate as this afternoon. Find out if the weekend is worth taking off.

SPECIES THAT ACTUALLY DIFFER
Snook hold in a pass and feed hard on an outgoing tide. Sheepshead graze structure and don't care much about current. Tarpon aren't there at all in January. Each species carries its own tide preference, current dependence, season, and honest difficulty rating — because a great window for a low-percentage fish is still a low-percentage day.

YOUR CATCH LOG
Start a session when you get on the water and close the app — the timer keeps running with no background drain. Log fish as you catch them with species, size, and photos. Every catch quietly records the tide state, solunar window, and predicted score at that moment, so over time your own log shows whether the numbers match your reality.

MAP PIN, NOT CITY NAME
Tap the satellite map where you actually fish and it snaps to the nearest of 3,499 NOAA gauges — often far closer than the city's headline station.

No account. No subscription. No ads. Tide data comes from NOAA's free public service. Your catches and photos stay on your phone.

Moving Water is a planning tool built on public tide and astronomy data. It is not a navigation or safety device — always check official forecasts and local conditions before heading out.

Very ergonomic fishing app with accurate readings and helpful information. HIGHLY recommend!

### 5/5 — Best fishing spots

*2026-08-30*

Best tide fishing app I’ve found. Uses NOAA data to rank the best fishing spots near you based on current tidal conditions. Finally stopped guessing and started catching so fish. The UI is clean and planning trips around the tides is super easy.

### 5/5 — Huge fan of this app

*2026-08-30*

Absolutely love this app. It’s become my go-to before heading out to fish and makes it so much easier to plan around when the bite should be good. Better interface than to any other fishing app I’ve used
