Catch Logger is the app that assists you in maintaining a record of your catches. This is a non-social app, meaning that your catches are kept private for your own reference. However, the option to share your catches is always available if you wish to do so. The “fishing session” feature allows you to effortlessly tally the number of catches, attach photos, or document special catches if you land a fish about which you want to preserve more information. In addition to logging catches during a fishing session, you also have the flexibility to register a single catch or a record catch independently. This is particularly useful if you want to add a fish to the app without initiating a fishing session. Enjoy your fishing adventures with Catch Logger!
