## What is Tampa Bay FishScout?

Find where the fish are in Tampa Bay.

Tampa Bay FishScout maps habitat quality for snook, red drum, and spotted seatrout across the entire bay at 250-meter resolution. Tap any spot to see what makes it good or bad — seagrass proximity, mangrove access, bottom type, vegetation cover, depth, and more — all graded A through F for your species of interest.

Predictions change by month, so you can plan around seasonal patterns. Switch between species to see who likes what, and explore bay-wide trends in temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen.

Powered by boosted regression tree models trained on 35,000+ fisheries survey records collected over three decades by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute.

Works completely offline — no cell signal needed on the water.
