An AI co-angler in your pocket — wherever you fish.

Bass Caddy fuses live weather, solunar windows, and your own catch history into a chat assistant that hands you verified waypoints, bait picks, and technique — grounded to the real lake, not guesses. Built for bass. Sharp on trout, walleye, crappie, pike, redfish, and whatever else bites.

Built for the boat

The lake changes hourly. Your co-angler keeps up.

Pull up at the ramp, open Bass Caddy, ask one question. The AI pulls live conditions for your exact lat/lon, cross-references your catch history, and tells you where to start — with a verified waypoint, not a wish.

What you get

An assistant that fishes alongside you.

Not a generic chatbot. Bass Caddy is grounded in real water conditions, real catch data, and the same patterns the pros run. It learns your lake, your gear, and your style.

Verified waypoints, not guesses

Every AI-picked spot is grounded to the real lake polygon — cross-checked against OpenStreetMap water geometry. No pins on dry land, no make-believe coves.

OSM lake-aware →

Weather-aware advice

Live wind, pressure, cloud cover, and water temp feed every recommendation — so the technique matches the day, not a textbook average.

Conditions in, lures out →

Solunar bite windows

Built-in solunar table calls the major and minor windows for your lat/lon — moon transits, sun events, the moments fish are most active. Plan the launch around the peak.

Major/minor periods →

Photo-first catch logging

Snap a photo at the boat. The server enriches the log — species, length-to-weight estimate, conditions, water body — and drops it on the map. Manual entry is a tap away if you'd rather type.

Auto-enrichment job →

Catch history that learns you

Your logs aren't a spreadsheet — they're context. Bass Caddy remembers what worked last March on your home lake and folds it into every new recommendation. Score each rec helpful / not helpful to sharpen the next one.

Personal RAG, not generic advice →

Tournament mode & sharing

Lock a tournament session, log catches with a durable local audit trail (survives crashes, dropped signal), and send any catch to a buddy as a signed share card. Their copy, your data.

Offline-first, share-friendly →
How it works

Three taps from launch to "fish on."

No setup wizard, no spreadsheets, no learning curve. Just open the app at the ramp.

01 — Tell us where

Drop a pin or pick a lake

Bass Caddy pulls live water temp, weather, wind, pressure, and moon phase for that exact spot. You don't enter any of it.

02 — Ask the AI

Get a plan in plain English

"What's the play?" returns a ranked list of lures, retrieves, and areas — citing the conditions that drove each call.

03 — Log it. Learn it.

Catches train your model

Every fish you log makes the next recommendation sharper. After a season, Bass Caddy fishes your water better than most locals.

The AI part, demystified

Not a chatbot reading Wikipedia. A co-pilot reading the water.

Bass Caddy combines a state-of-the-art language model with live environmental feeds, your private catch history, and a curated knowledge base built by tournament anglers and biologists.

  • Grounded in real weather, solunar, and water-temp data — no hallucinated forecasts.
  • Every recommended waypoint is verified against real lake geometry before you see it.
  • Personalizes to your home lake and your own catch history over time.
  • Works for every species — bass is just where we obsess hardest.

FAQ

Questions before you cast?

Does it really work for fish other than bass?

Yes. Bass is what we obsess over, but the AI is sharp on largemouth, smallmouth, spotted bass, trout, walleye, crappie, pike, redfish, and other common freshwater and inshore species — with technique advice that changes by species, not generic "catch fish" text.

What does "verified waypoints" actually mean?

When the AI suggests a spot, the server cross-references it against the real OpenStreetMap water polygon for that lake or river. Pins that land on dry land, the wrong cove, or a hallucinated body of water get rejected before they reach you. You only see spots that are actually on water.

What data goes into a recommendation?

Live weather, barometric pressure, wind, cloud cover, water temperature, time of year, the day's solunar major/minor windows, and your own private catch history. The model cites what it's leaning on so you can second-guess any call.

Will it work offline at the lake?

Catch logging, your map, and your last recommendation work offline — the client caches locally and syncs the moment signal returns. New AI chat turns need connectivity since the model runs server-side.

How does billing work?

Bass Caddy Pro is $14.99/month, billed by Apple through your App Store account. The subscription renews monthly until you cancel. Manage or cancel anytime from App Store → your name → Subscriptions.

Is my catch data private?

Every pin and every catch is private to your account by default. Sharing is one catch at a time, via a signed link you choose to send. We don't sell or aggregate your locations.

Android?

iOS is live. Android is in active development — the project is already scaffolded alongside the iOS client and shares the same server backend.
