Running a session
A session is one trip to the water, from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. Every catch you log belongs to a session, which is how the app can later tell you what worked and when.
Start it when you arrive
Open Home and start a session. Allow location access the first time you are asked, because almost everything useful on this screen depends on knowing where you are.
The app then fills in the rest by itself: your position, a suggested place name, the current weather, the air pressure and which way it is moving, and the solunar windows for the day.
Pick the water body carefully
Start typing the name of the lake, river or canal and pick it from the suggestions if it is there. Choosing an existing one is what puts you on the same leaderboard as everyone else fishing that water.
If your spot is not listed you can type your own name for it. Spell it the way you would expect to find it later, because it will be the label on every session you log there.
Add a rig for every rod
Once the session is running you can add a rig for each rod you have out. Give it a name you will recognise, then attach the bait and feed you are using on it.
Each rig has its own timer. That is the point of them: at the end of the day you can see which rod actually produced instead of trying to remember.
Log catches as they happen
Add a catch straight from the session screen and it is filed against the session, the rig and the conditions automatically. The live counter goes up as you go.
It is worth doing it there and then. Logging six fish from memory in the car park is exactly how details get lost.
End the session when you pack up
Tap End session and confirm. You will get a summary with the total time, everything you caught and the conditions you caught it in.
From then on the trip lives in your calendar and feeds your stats. If you forget to close a session, just end it the next time you open the app.
