1. 01Head to Register and sign up either with your email and a password, or with Google in one tap.
2. 02If you signed up by email, confirm it. Forget your password later? Reset it any time from the login screen. Signing up with Google skips both, there is no password to remember.
3. 03First sign-in takes you through a short profile setup. Pick a username you're happy with, it becomes your public profile URL.
4. 04You're on the Free tier by default. Everything marked Pro further down is optional, see Level Up below.

• General Profile: display name, avatar and bio.
• Profile Details: the angling specifics other anglers actually care about.
• Catch Reports: everything you've published, in one place.
• Saved: fisheries, lakes and accommodation you've favourited while browsing.

Your public page sits at your own profile URL. That's what other anglers see when they follow you or open one of your catches.

• Directory: filter fisheries by fishing type, species, facilities and more.
• Fishery pages show lakes, pricing, facilities, rules, photos, catch reports and angler reviews.
• Drill into an individual lake page, or a place to stay on the accommodation pages.
• Browse by area, or search UK fisheries as a whole.
• Global search covers the whole platform, right from the header search bar.

The Trip Planner puts fisheries side by side so you can compare on species, distance, price and facilities in one view, instead of ten open tabs.

1. 01Book on TackleFlow: Partner venues take bookings here. You pick your date, session and pegs or unit on their fishery page, pay, and it is done.
2. 02Book direct with the fishery: every other venue links out to their own site or gives you their phone and email. You book with them the usual way, and TackleFlow is how you found them.
3. 03A fishery page always tells you which of the two it is, so you are never guessing whether a booking went through.
4. 04Anything booked on TackleFlow lives under Bookings in your dashboard, split into fishing, accommodation, events and matches, with a digital ticket or pass to show at the gate.
5. 05Season tickets and club memberships are managed from the Memberships tab of your dashboard.

1. 01Open Catch Log and add a catch: species, weight, venue and a photo.
2. 02Filter your own log down to one species or one venue to see your history at a glance.
3. 03Publish a catch as a public catch report and it appears in Catch Reports, where other anglers can see and comment on it.
4. 04Catch Reports also has a leaderboard, ranking catches across the platform.

• Drop pins on swims, and mark snags, features and feeding zones on Lake Mapping.
• Switch to satellite view to work out where the features actually are.
• Each pin opens its own spot page for the detail.
• Your maps are private to you and synced to your account, so they follow you to any device.

1. 01Start a session when you get to the bank. The timer runs for the whole trip.
2. 02Set up multiple rods and edit them as you go.
3. 03Log every rig and bait change with a timestamp, so afterwards you can see what you were actually on when the fish came.
4. 04Add catches as they happen. They go straight into the session, not a separate app.
5. 05The tracker takes a live weather and location snapshot as you fish, so your session carries real conditions data, not remembered ones.

• Wake lock keeps the screen on while you're using it, so there's no unlocking your phone with wet hands at 3am.
• Offline sync writes everything to your device and pushes it up automatically once you're back in range. UK bank signal is unreliable; the tracker is built around that, not against it.

Afterwards, Session History lists every session you've run, and each one opens to a full breakdown with session analytics and an activity chart showing when the action actually happened.

Your Angler CV lives at its own dedicated page and is built from sections you fill in yourself: Hero, Vitals, Bio, Hall of Fame (your personal bests), Video Showcase, Catch Portfolio, and Credentials, your syndicate history and background.

Why it exists: when you apply for a syndicate water or an exclusive ticket, you get asked to prove you're a serious, careful angler. Send one link instead of digging through years of phone photos.

• Community feed: three tabs, All, Following and Trending. Post status updates with photos and video; like, comment, and open media in the full viewer.
• Follow anglers you rate. Your Following tab is then only the people you chose, no algorithm reshuffling it.
• Forums for longer discussions that don't belong in a feed.
• Messages for direct messages: angler to angler, and angler to fishery.
• Notifications and the header bell keep you on top of replies, follows and booking updates.
• Matches for match fishing, and Events for festivals and competitions with tickets bought on the platform. Running one yourself? You can submit it.

1. 01Browse the Marketplace, or list something of your own for sale.
2. 02Manage what you've listed from My Listings, and keep an eye on things you're watching in Saved.
3. 03Sellers carry star ratings from previous buyers, so you can see who you're dealing with before you commit.

• XP and ranks: your progress bar and current rank sit in the header dropdown, with a toast when you gain.
• Learn: curated fishing videos, rigs and tactics guides, and bait & tackle pages.

Free includes: browsing the fishery directory, limited catch logging, limited photo uploads, limited community access, and trial lake mapping.

1. 01Start at List Your Fishery.
2. 02The Free tier lists you straight away. No card, no contract.
3. 03Listings typically go live within a few hours.
4. 04Once you're in, you manage everything yourself from your fishery dashboard. Most edits go live instantly, no waiting on approval.

• Split into contact, pricing, features, facilities, rules and location tabs.
• Add photos: this is the single biggest driver of whether an angler clicks through.
• Missing Info, under Insights, flags exactly which fields you've left blank, so you're never guessing at what's letting the listing down.

Each lake gets its own species list, peg count, rules, day-ticket pricing and photos. Anglers can find and land directly on an individual lake page, so it's worth filling each one in properly rather than lumping everything into the fishery description.

Each unit gets its own details, pricing and photos, plus its own page in the accommodation directory.

• Booking Settings: how bookings work at your venue, including how far ahead people can book.
• Lake Manager: spaces per day, closures and pricing, per lake.
• Accommodation Manager: blocked nights and pricing, per unit.
• Add-ons: booking extras such as bait, equipment, or food and drink.
• Accommodation Add-ons: extras attached to specific accommodation units.

Already keep a diary elsewhere? Connect it under Calendar Sync and its bookings block dates here automatically, so what an angler sees matches what you actually have free. One calendar for the whole place, or one per lake or unit if that is how you keep them.

• Bookings: manage fishing and accommodation bookings in one place.
• Earnings: TackleFlow takes 10% commission on bookings taken here. You see gross, commission and net on every transaction, month by month, and each payout marked Pending or Paid Out, with its date and reference once it has gone. Bookings you take direct are yours, and no commission is charged on them.

• Updates: post closures and announcements so anglers aren't turning up to a shut gate.
• Reviews: read and manage the reviews anglers leave you.
• Catch Reports: moderate the catch photos anglers submit against your venue before they appear.
• Session Reports: the session write-ups anglers produce from their own sessions at your water.
• Matches: run and manage match fishing events.
• Memberships: season tickets and club memberships.
• Messages: a direct line to the TackleFlow team. Angler DMs come through the normal messages system.

• Page views and click-throughs, broken down by channel: website, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, directions, phone, email and share, both monthly and lifetime.
• Visits per lake and per accommodation unit, so you can see which of your waters is actually pulling the traffic.
• Running more than one venue? The fishery switcher moves you between them without logging out.

Whether you need help fixing something on your website, setting up a booking system, improving your online presence or finding better ways to manage day-to-day tasks, we're happy to discuss your requirements.
