Questions before launch.

Keep Fishing is a coming-soon privacy-first field tool for Pacific Northwest anglers. It is designed around source-labeled Conditions, private Journal records, and Trip Watch planning.

PNW anglers who already read conditions, watch weather, keep private records, and care about protecting their water. Salmon, steelhead, trout, lake, bay, and ocean anglers are the primary audience.

No. Keep Fishing is not launched yet. No login, platform link, pricing, or access path is posted.

Pricing is not published yet. The site will show pricing before paid access opens.

The business model is not published yet. Pricing or subscription details still need to be disclosed before launch, alongside clear data ownership and privacy commitments.

Yes. Journal entries and private pins are private by default. Sharing is per-entry and explicit. Nothing is posted to a feed.

Keep Fishing is cloud-backed. Private means account-restricted records, explicit sharing, and data-use commitments shaped around your own field history. Supabase, AWS, and map providers support storage, delivery, SMS, and maps as described in the Privacy Policy.

Sharing is explicit and entry-level. Journal records remain account-restricted by default, and generalized crowd reports stay separated from private Journal coordinates.

Entries stay account-restricted by default unless a specific entry is shared.

USGS stream gauges, NOAA weather, NOAA tide tables and currents, NWS National Water Prediction Service river forecasts, and crowd-submitted reports. Every number in the app is designed to show its source.

Bands are user-set ranges for conditions on saved water: too-low, low, target, high, and too-high. The app does not use a composite rating.

Keep Fishing shows readings, forecast context, and band crossings. The angler decides what to do with the data.

Trip Watch is designed to message safety contacts with overdue context and last known location when a check-in is missed. It is not an emergency service and does not guarantee rescue, dispatch, or SMS delivery.

Not by itself. Offline actions can be queued, but overdue messages require a working network path. No dedicated Garmin inReach, Zoleo, Apple Emergency SOS, or other satellite-messenger integration is published. Carry official emergency gear for solo trips.

Crowd reports are treated as a separate, non-authoritative source. Private Journal coordinates stay account-restricted, and crowd context stays visually separated from official sources and personal records.

Platform details are not posted yet. This site will be updated when launch details are ready.

There is no automated signup form yet. Contact us to join the waiting list, ask launch questions, or send corrections.

Offline support is planned for Journal entries, photos, voice notes, and trip check-ins. Live gauge data requires signal.

Keep Fishing is PNW-first. Some public sources have national coverage, but the launch value depends on supported waters, local source mapping, and regional fish data. The supported-waters directory is not published yet.

Bug reporting opens when the app launches.
