What's Bitin'

Know what's biting before you leave the dock.

What's Bitin' gives you seasonal outlooks for saltwater fishing, crabbing, and lobstering across every U.S. coast and territory — all in one clean, offline app. Pick your water, pick your month, and see exactly what's worth chasing.

99 SPECIES, ILLUSTRATED

87 saltwater gamefish, 8 crabs, and 4 lobsters — each with an illustration, scientific name, family, typical and trophy sizes, habitat, and how to tell it apart from lookalikes. From striped bass and fluke to snook, permit, mutton snapper, calico bass, opakapaka and swordfish — plus blue crab, Dungeness, stone crab, spiny lobster and more.

THE BITE WINDOW

Every species gets a twelve-month rating for your region, split shore and offshore. Tap a month, flip the mode, and watch the season change. Peak, good, incidental, or off — color-coded so you read it at a glance.

KNOW WHICH WATER

Shore fishing isn't one thing. Each species tells you where the bite actually is — open surf, back bays and estuaries, or jetties and structure — so you don't drive to the beach for a bay fish.

CRABBING & LOBSTERING TOO

Something no other app does: crab and lobster seasons by region, with the gear and timing that work, plus the regulations that matter most — from stone crab claws-only rules to Florida's spiny lobster sport season.

FULL SPECIES DETAIL

Eating and fight ratings, whether it's usually kept or released, the baits and best times, and a reminder to check current regulations. Bait and gear are split by how you fish — beach, boat, or diving.

WHAT'S ON THIS MONTH

Your region, your mode, best target first — with a trend arrow showing whether the bite is building or fading into next month.

LIVE MAP

A pin on every region, colored by the best bite available right now. Tap the water to see what's on, and switch modes in place.

SEARCHABLE LIST

Search by common name, scientific name, or family. Switch regions without leaving the screen.

What's Bitin' shows typical seasonal timing, not a live catch feed. It's the planner you check the night before. Always confirm current seasons, size and bag limits, and licence requirements with your state or federal authority before keeping any fish, crab, or lobster.
