FishCast is a fishing app that predicts your catch based on scientific data.
No more wondering, "Is today a good day for fishing?" It analyzes seven factors—tides, atmospheric pressure, water temperature, weather, time of day, topography, and oxygen environment (estimated)—using a unique algorithm to predict your catch for the day on a score of 0 to 100.

[Catch Prediction]
A unique prediction engine integrating seven environmental factors. It automatically suggests the optimal times for fishing (golden hours) at dawn and dusk. Optimized predictions for each of the 78 target fish species provide information tailored to your fishing strategy.
[Over 1,700 Fishing Spots Nationwide]
Covers all prefectures from Hokkaido to Okinawa. Includes information on topography, water depth, target fish species, access, parking, and fishing restrictions for each fishing spot. "Recommendations for You" suggests fishing spots close to your current location.
[Tidal Graph]
Visually displays high and low tide times and water levels. Based on the Japan Meteorological Agency's lunar calendar, the app determines tide types (spring tide, neap tide, slack tide, and young tide), achieving accuracy close to that of Japanese tide tables.
[Recommended Fishing Method under These Conditions]
Based on the current tide, time of day, and season, it suggests the most suitable fishing method. Supports 78 fish species and 118 fishing methods.
[AI Fish Species Recognition]
Simply take a photo, and the AI automatically identifies the fish species. Recording your catches is even easier.
[Catch Submission - Completed in 3 Taps]
Just take a photo and select the fish species. Weather, atmospheric pressure, tides, and forecast scores are automatically entered from GPS. You can submit without registering an account.
