Gannet intelligence
Think like a gannet, fish like a gannet
Gannet weighs the tide, wind, swell and sea temperature against your own logbook — your species, your spots, your seasons — and turns it into a clear read on where to go and what’s biting. The more trips you log, the sharper it gets.
Today’s reading
“You’ve landed good kingfish here around this time before — and with the tide and water temp lining up this week, they should be on.”
What it does
The thinking you do before every trip — done for you
Gannet checks the tide, wind, swell, moon and your past trips, then ranks the best spots and windows for the day.
Gannet Intelligence
Gannet weighs the season and today’s water against your own logbook — your species, your counts, your spots — and tells you what’s likely on. Your history becomes your edge.
Made smarter by every trip
Voice-log, paste, or photograph a logbook page — Gannet pulls out species, counts and stops automatically. The more you log, the better it knows your patch.
AI trip plans, on demand
“Snapper and kingfish off Mayor Island Saturday, leaving 5:30am, home by 1pm” — Gannet turns a plain-English plan into ranked spots and the best window to fish them.
Conditions, hour by hour
Wind, swell and tide for your spots and waypoints, hour by hour — with the calmest weather window and the bite window called out across the day.
Read the water in layers
BetaSea surface temperature, AI hotspots and temperature breaks painted onto the chart — so you can see where the fish-holding water is before you leave the ramp.
An honest call
Every spot flags Go, Caution or Avoid — and Gannet tells you straight when it’s a day to stay home. A planning aid, never a push to launch.
