When WayLog can help

Remember where on the water
the day came together.

A catch in a photo. A boat moving between spots. Use the route and pictures to help recall where you caught that fish.

Save the boat's route

See the route from departure to return. Review the areas you explored and how you moved between fishing spots.

Recall where you caught a fish

Show geotagged photos taken during recording on the map. A catch photo's location can help you remember the area where you fished.

Keep memories of the whole trip

Save the boat's journey as well as fish photos. Remember a day with friends or the first time you caught a new species.

Get ready. Record. Look back.

Before your first trip, check compatibility and the settings you need.

  1. 1

    Start before leaving harbor

    Check location settings at the harbor and begin recording before departure. Check your camera's location settings if you want photo locations, too.

  2. 2

    Photograph your catch

    Record the boat's route and take a photo when you catch a fish. Check your footing and surroundings, and take photos only when comfortable and safe.

  3. 3

    Review the route and photos afterward

    Stop recording and open the boat's route in Record Detail. Use the photo button to show geotagged pictures and revisit the locations alongside your route.

Look back on the map

Your sea fishing trip,
revisited on a map.

From harbor to offshore spots and back again. Compare the boat's route with catch photo locations to recall an area that memory alone cannot pinpoint.

A closer look at your journey

Alongside catch photos,
keep the day's route.

View geotagged photos taken during a recording on its detail map. A photo taken just after a catch can help identify the area. Photo access permission, timestamps, and location data are required.

Keep records your way

Use fish and area names
to find the trip again.

Put the date or boat name in a title, and fish species, tackle, or reminders in notes. Your own Sea fishing or Tai-rubber jigging tags can help you find previous trips.

Frequently asked questions

Are catches registered automatically?

WayLog does not detect when a fish is caught. Review your route with geotagged photos taken during recording. If a photo is taken elsewhere later, its map location is where the photo was taken.

Why are my photos missing from the map?

Check photo access permission, photo timestamps and location data, and whether photos were taken during the recording period. Photos without location data cannot be placed on the map.

Does it show fish, depth, or tide information?

This page describes reviewing boat travel and photos. WayLog does not provide fish finding, seabed or depth charts, tide information, or catch predictions.

Can I use it for marine navigation?

Use it to review records. It does not replace nautical charts or navigation equipment. Vessel operation should follow appropriate charts and equipment and the captain's judgment.

How can I share a record without revealing fishing spots?

Map images and GPX files can reveal fishing spots and departure locations. Check them before publishing. If they include locations you do not want to show, avoid sharing them or choose other content, such as a catch photo.

Is it free to use?

WayLog is free to download and use. Check the App Store and the app for optional features and purchase terms.

Can I save trips from before recording began?

No. WayLog cannot recreate a route traveled before recording started. Begin recording before the journey you want to save.

On your next fishing trip,
remember the boat's journey, too.

Everyday trips and roads you have never traveled.
Your own records, ready to revisit.
