CatchRules

Identify the fish.
Measure the fish.
Know the rules.

A compact iPhone reference for recreational anglers. Built to work on the water, without a signal.

Built for the moment after you land it.

Most apps stop at identification. CatchRules keeps going: it measures the fish, checks the rules for your jurisdiction, and tells you whether it's legal to keep. All on your iPhone, all offline.
