What's in the app

Today's conditions

Tides, wind, waves, weather alerts and a simple fishing score with the reasons behind it. A Go / Caution / No-go safety check flags things like small craft advisories, rip currents and thunderstorms.

"Can I keep it?"

Pick your fish, enter its length and see the size limit, bag limit and season for where you are, with a link to the official regulations.

Spots, shops and guides

A map of public fishing access, boat ramps and piers, nearby bait & tackle shops, and local guides for popular places.

Learn to fish

Fishing 101 lessons, fish ID pages, rigs and knots, invasive fish rules and "bait in the water now".

A private catch log

Your log lives on your phone. Share a catch only if you want to, and even then the community sees a rough area, never your spot.

Fish with friends

Optional account for friends, "Fish together" sessions, leaderboards, likes and comments.

Coverage

Regulations, spots and local data cover New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Elsewhere the weather forecast, guides and your log still work, and you can vote in the app for the next state we add.

Tightline's regulation info is a plain-language summary. Always check the official rules from your state's fish and wildlife agency, and use your own judgment about safety on the water.
