AI App That Picks the Right Fishing Lure From a Photo of the Spot

Snap a photo of your fishing spot and get AI lure and colour suggestions, plus a catch log.

In plain English

FishingAI is an iPhone app for people who fish. You take a photo of the water where you are fishing. The app looks at the photo, the weather and the time of day and suggests which lures and colours to try. It also keeps a log of your catches, and you pay a subscription to use it.

The tool stack

Prices are the vendors' published list prices as researched in Oct 2026 and change often — always check the vendor's pricing page.

Step-by-step setup

  1. Pick a hobby with a daily 'what should I use?' question, like choosing a fishing lure.
  2. Combine a photo of the spot with weather and time of day, and let AI suggest lures and colours.
  3. Add a catch log and fish ID so anglers keep coming back.
  4. Hard paywall subscription; grow with short fishing videos and creators.
