Snap a photo of any fish — Fisherina tells you what it is. On-device AI identifies freshwater and saltwater species in seconds, completely offline. Get the name, habitat, diet, best baits, spawning season, and edibility from a single picture. Whether you pulled it from a lake, river, or shoreline — you'll know exactly what's on your hook. FISH IDENTIFIER Point your camera at any catch. The AI recognizes species across North America and Europe — bass, carp, trout, pike, perch, walleye, catfish, salmon, crappie, bluegill, musky, and hundreds more. Each species comes with a detailed guide: where it lives, what it eats, when it spawns, what bait works best, and whether it's good to eat. Browse all species alphabetically or filter by US and European waters. FISHING REGULATIONS — 49 US STATES Size limits, bag limits, possession limits, and closed seasons for 49 states. All sourced from official fish and wildlife agencies: • Florida — FWC • Texas — TPWD • Michigan — DNR • Utah — DWR • Washington — Fish and Wildlife • Montana — Fish Wildlife and Parks • Tennessee — TWRA • Mississippi — MDWFP • North Carolina, Idaho, Virginia — Go Outdoors • …and 40 more states Every entry links to the official state brochure. Fishing in Europe? Freshwater regulations for Poland, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the UK are built in. SOLUNAR FORECASTS & MOON PHASES Major and minor feeding periods calculated from lunar data. Moonrise, moonset, sunrise, sunset, moon phase, and illumination — all in one view. A daily bite score tells you how active fish are likely to be. Check the 7-day forecast, browse the monthly solunar calendar, or plan your next fishing trip around the peak feeding window. BAROMETER Your iPhone has a pressure sensor — Fisherina reads it. See a 24-hour barometric pressure chart with trend indicators. Falling pressure before a cold front? That usually means active bite. Rising after a storm? Fish may slow down. Real sensor data, not a forecast from the internet. CATCH LOG & JOURNAL Log every catch with photo, species, weight, length, GPS location, moon phase, and conditions. Track personal bests, streaks, and monthly stats. Pin your fishing spots on a map. Build a life list of every species you've caught. Set goals, earn achievements, and relive your season in Year in Review. CONTENT CREATOR Turn any catch into a shareable post. 23 templates, draggable overlays, 12 photo filters, stickers, custom fonts, and face blur. Build a catch card in seconds and share to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or anywhere. KNOTS & RIGS 15 fishing knots step-by-step — palomar, improved clinch, uni, FG, blood, snell, double uni, and more. Each knot rated by strength with a tip on when to use it. TOOLS • Bite Alarm — rest your phone on the rod, detects strikes through motion sensors • FishEye — simulate how lure colors appear underwater at any depth • Weight & Size — estimate length and weight from a photo using a reference object • Recasting Timers — up to 6 rods with background notifications 9 languages. Fully offline. No account required. Whether you're ice fishing on a frozen lake, casting from a kayak, or chasing trophy catches off the coast — Fisherina is the fishing app that travels with you. Use it as a fishing diary, a solunar almanac for seasonal patterns, or a fish scanner to verify your catch on the spot. A fishing companion for weekend anglers and serious fishermen alike.
