Stop guessing.
StrikeAhead shows you when and where the predators bite — with free depth maps for your spot and a Read that learns from your own catches. For pike, zander, perch & sea bass.
Stop searching. Start catching.
Four things the app takes off your hands.
You see WHERE the predators hold
Depth maps show edges, plateaus and structure — and for selected target species, zones light up right where your fish holds. No hours of sonar scanning.
Free · no paywallYou know IF it is worth heading out
A single Read for your spot — live and 7 days ahead. Head out when it counts, not on a hunch.
The app gets sharper with every catch
One photo is enough — species, location, weather and depth are recognized. The Read learns your pattern, not the average.
Your bite window on your wrist
Start a session, trigger a catch from the watch, check your bite window & Storm Alert — on Apple Watch and Wear OS. Both hands stay free.
Map. Read. Catch. Season.
Three steps to the strike.
Log your catches
Take a photo — the AI recognizes species, location, weather and depth in seconds.
The Read learns
Your real, verified catches build your personal pattern.
When & where
Live Read + 7-day forecast at your spots. You know it in advance.
A day with StrikeAhead.
Before heading out you check the Read for your spot — good window. The map shows you the edge at 6 m. You land one, log it in 10 seconds — and the app learns what works for you. Next time, you know it beforehand.
Built for you — not for advertisers.
Quick answers.
Can I log catches without a location or from a GoPro?
Yes — with Ghost-Catch. Private catches from any camera, no location and unscored: they count in your logbook and season stats, and your Strike-Score still learns from them — but without XP and outside the leaderboards. The AI still identifies your fish. A Pro feature.
Which devices does StrikeAhead run on?
iOS and Android with one account — plus Apple Watch and Wear OS, in your language.
What’s free?
The map with depth relief, the hourly fishing weather and the storm alerts — ad-free. Pro unlocks the read: your personal, learning Strike-Score and the analytics.
Are there depth charts?
Yes — worldwide depth relief, finely surveyed for Europe’s coasts. The map is free, with hourly fishing weather on top.
Can I compete against other anglers?
Yes — in challenges and leaderboards, 1-on-1 or crew vs. crew. Only verified catches count — that’s why your rank means something.
Do my spots stay private?
Yes. Your catch locations are yours — you decide for each catch whether to share it.
Does the app work offline?
Yes — you can start offline, save your catch photo offline, and look up the fishing rules without a connection.
Can I book a guide or skipper through StrikeAhead?
Yes — with StrikeAhead Pathfinder. The app tells you when and where they bite; Pathfinder gives you the person to go with: vetted skippers and guides, a direct line, no booking fee.
