Angler

A fly-fishing companion, in the making.

Angler is a mobile app being built by Cutthroat Innovations to help fly anglers understand, organize, and use their fly-fishing information — from the flies in their boxes to what they learn on the water.

Angler is in development and isn’t available in app stores yet.

Every angler carries more knowledge than they can easily keep track of: which flies are in which box, what worked on a certain stretch of water, what to bring next time. Angler is being built to hold on to it — and make it useful.

01

Know your flies.

Angler is being built to give you a clear, visual record of the flies you own — what each one is, the sizes and colors you carry, and how many you have left.

  • A personal fly inventory
  • Patterns, sizes, and colors at a glance
  • Know what you have before you restock

02

Organize your Fly Boxes.

Angler is designed to mirror your real Fly Boxes, so you can see what’s in each one and decide what goes where before you head to the water.

  • Fly Boxes organized the way you carry them
  • Visual organization, not spreadsheets
  • Pack the right box for the water

03

Capture time on the water.

Angler is being built to make logging a fishing session and its catches quick and simple, so the details of a good day — where, when, and on what fly — aren’t lost by the time you’re home.

  • Fishing sessions, start to finish
  • Simple catch logging
  • The flies that worked, remembered

04

Build useful fishing knowledge over time.

Season after season, your own records become your best guide. Angler is being built to turn what you’ve logged into useful fishing insights, so each trip teaches you something for the next.

  • Your history in one place

    Sessions, catches, and flies kept together instead of scattered across notes and memory.

  • Insights from your own fishing

    Useful patterns drawn from what you’ve recorded — what has worked for you, and where.

  • Better preparation

    Walk into your next trip knowing what to bring and what to try first.

Designed around real anglers.

  • Visual first

    Flies are visual things. Angler is designed to show you your flies and boxes, not bury them in lists.

  • Simple on the water

    Designed to be quick to use with cold hands, bright sun, and a rod tucked under one arm.

  • Made for your fishing

    Organized around the water you fish and the gear you actually carry — not a generic idea of an angler.

Where Angler is today.
