> TROLLLOGIC BRINGS FISHING INTELLIGENCE If you troll, you know how quickly things can change. Change a lure or color. Speed up. Slow down. Let out more line. Change depth. Then a rod fires - and sometimes it turns into pure chaos. TrollLogic remembers which lures were on, the line-out for each rod, and what was working so you can get everything set back up. It recognizes what's working during the trip and saves it for the next time you're on the water. > START EVERY TRIP WITH A PLAN TrollLogic combines what worked on your previous trips with today's fishing conditions - moon phase, barometric pressure, water clarity and water temperature - to give you immediate startup lure and speed suggestions. Start fishing with setups that worked before instead of guessing - or trying to remember which lures and speeds worked best the last time you were here. > SET THE CORRECT LURE DEPTH You can't catch fish if your lure isn't where the fish are. TrollLogic's Depth vs. Line-Out Calculator helps put your lure in front of or just above the fish. > SPOT REAL-TIME TROLLING PATTERNS As you log catches, TrollLogic looks for emerging patterns in speed, lure color, depth and line-out. When variables converge, TrollLogic identifies the fish-catching patterns developing in real time and alerts you. It even suggests setups for other rods so you can take advantage of what's working while the fish are biting. > TRACK EVERY CATCH AND WHERE IT HAPPENED Log each catch with its rod, lure, depth and fishing conditions. TrollLogic records the exact GPS location and your trail, showing what caught fish and exactly where it happened - so you can return to that spot. Whether trolling, reef fishing, casting for bass or tarpon, or ice fishing in the frozen north, TrollLogic remembers where you caught them. Every trip becomes part of your fishing history library - ready when you come back. > SEE THE BOTTOM CONTOURS YOU'RE FISHING TrollLogic includes detailed contour mapping for all the Great Lakes, supported coastal waters, and select inland lakes. We'll continue expanding mapping coverage as new areas become available. Use the maps with your live GPS position, trail and catch locations to see the bottom contours you're fishing, where you've been and where your fish were caught. > SHARE THE WHOLE TRIP Send another TrollLogic angler the whole trip - including catches, photos, trip details, GPS trail and waypoints. Instead of explaining what you were running or where the fish came from, just send them the trip. > NOT JUST FOR TROLLING Built around trolling, TrollLogic doesn't stop when the trolling rods come in. Casting, Spot/Anchor - including Ice Fishing - and River Drift modes let you record and remember those trips too.

Know your catch. Keep it legal. Save the memory. Wind, seas and wave period scored into one grade, plus regulations for your exact waters. Hook a fish you don't recognize? Not sure if it's a keeper? ReelIntel is the fishing app built for Gulf Coast and Florida Atlantic anglers who want to stay legal, fish smarter, and remember every trip on the water. Snap a photo and our on-device AI identifies your catch — then shows you the rules for your exact waters: season, size, and bag limits. So an unexpected catch never turns into an accidental fine. You don't fish for a living, and you shouldn't need to memorize a rule book to enjoy a day out. 100% free. No in-app purchases necessary. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Identify your catch — Point, shoot, and get the species in seconds. (Fish ID is a growing beta that gets sharper over time — always confirm your catch.) • Know the rules — Instant regulations for your selected waters: season, size, and bag limits, so you make the keep-or-release call with confidence. • Log every trip — Save each catch with up to 3 photos, kept or released, measurements, and Personal Bests. Share your catch by text or social in one tap. • Fish smarter — AI studies YOUR logs to find YOUR patterns: the tides, conditions, and times of day that actually produce for you. The more you log, the sharper it gets. • Test your skills — The Fish ID Quiz turns species, seasons, and limits into a game. Challenge your buddies and see who really knows their fish. • Check conditions — Weather, wind, and surf for your fishing spots, so you know when to go. • Stay alerted — Regulation changes on your starred species, plus reminders for the best times to fish. WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Identify fish, check the rules, and log catches miles offshore — no bars required. Everything syncs across your phone and iPad when you're back in range. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Your logs and your fishing spots are private, period. Want community heat maps showing where fish are being caught? Opt in — it's off by default, and you can turn it off anytime. Even then, we share zones, never spots: your exact fishing locations are never shared, never shown to another angler, and never appear on anyone's map. Your data is yours to export whenever you want. COMING SOON Measure and weigh your fish from a single photo with built-in LiDAR. No tape, no scale. Download ReelIntel free and make every trip count.
