Executive Angler

The complete fly fishing app — and it's free. Log sessions, read live rivers, tie flies on a full workbench with 500+ materials, and see your patterns. Download today.

Executive Angler is the fly fishing journal that turns every day on the water into a record you'll actually use — free for every angler. Log a session in seconds, read live river conditions before you leave the house, build and tie the flies you actually fish, and watch your own patterns emerge season after season.

TAP ONCE. START FISHING. Auto-detect your river, map your GPS route, pull real-time weather, and count your catch — while a Live Activity keeps your time and fish count on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Force-quit the app, lose signal, switch to the camera: the session survives and syncs when you're back in range.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO. Live USGS flow, water temperature, and weather for 200+ rivers — plus a fishability score and 12-month flow history, so you know when to drop everything and go.

MATCH THE HATCH. See what's hatching on the rivers you fish, month by month, tied to the patterns that actually work.

YOUR FLY BOX, ORGANIZED. Catalog every pattern you fish, flag what to tie next, and pull up any fly — with photos, sizes, and notes — right when you need it.

A REAL TYING WORKBENCH. Build structured recipes step by step — hook, thread, bead, body, hackle, and more — with autocomplete from a database of 500+ tying materials. Start from 120+ proven patterns or create your own from scratch, then export a clean PDF to tie from at the vise.

WHAT CAN I TIE? Tell the app what materials you have on hand and it instantly shows every pattern you can tie right now — no more guessing at the bench.

FIND THE PATTERNS IN YOUR FISHING. Fish per session, species breakdown, best flies, best windows, personal bests, and year-over-year trends — all built from your own catch history, and only yours.

EVERY FISH ON THE MAP. Route, stats, conditions, and notes captured for every trip, with your catches pinned exactly where they happened.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT. Your journal belongs to you. We never publish your locations or your fish counts. Anything you share is always your call.

ON YOUR WRIST. An Apple Watch companion keeps the essentials with you when your phone stays in your pack.

Free to download, free to use, all of it. Get Executive Angler, log your next cast, tie your next fly, and let your fishing compound.
