About GuideHour: Lake Maps & Fishing

The whole app is a map — every fishable water a tap away, with an AI guide that already knows what today looks like where you're standing. GuideHour puts 20,000+ Midwest lakes and rivers on one live map, backed by official DNR data, depth contours (where available), and real conditions. And wherever you fish in the US, the AI guide walks in already knowing the weather, the water, and the fish you're after. THE MAP IS THE APP No tab maze. Open the app and you're looking at the water. Pan to any lake, tap it, and everything — conditions, fish, rules, depth — slides up as a card over the map. Drop your own marks, flip on boat landings, and switch between outdoors and satellite views. A GUIDE THAT'S ALREADY CAUGHT UP No typing out your situation. The guide walks in knowing the forecast, water temp, sun and moon, the water body you're on, and the species you're chasing — so you get a real answer fast. And it's not buried in a chat tab: conditions, a lake, a fish, your log — wherever you are in the app, there's a one-line read on what it means for your trip. IT LEARNS HOW YOU FISH Every trip you log teaches it more. Over a season it stops guessing at what works for anglers in general and starts knowing what works for you. FIND YOUR NEXT WATER Search any supported lake by name, or filter the waters around you by the species they actually hold, depth, size, and public access — straight from official state survey data. DEPTH CONTOURS & 3D LAKE BEDS Depth contours draw right on the map, with full-color depth shading and a 3D lake bed you can tilt and spin — see the drop-offs, humps, and holes before you launch. Live on Minnesota lakes today, with more states on the way. CONDITIONS WITHOUT THE HOMEWORK Weather, wind, pressure trend, water temperature, sun and moon, and major/minor feeding periods — for wherever you're standing, anywhere in the US. AI FISHING REPORT A daily report that reads the whole day for your water and your species: conditions, timing, tactics, and what to expect out there. DNR DATA IN ONE TAP Open official DNR fishing regulations, lake surveys, water quality, maps, and depth charts — no more digging through the DNR website on the shore. LOGBOOK Log species, counts, bait, and the hours you fished. Watch your season build — trips, fish, top waters — and give your guide more to work with. WHERE IT WORKS Conditions, sun and moon, water temperature, the AI guide, the daily report, and your logbook work for freshwater lakes and rivers anywhere in the United States. Lake search, DNR regs, surveys, and lake data are live in Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin; depth contours and 3D lake beds are live on Minnesota, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, and Nebraska lakes, with more on the way. All fishing regulation, survey, water-quality, and map data linked in the app is sourced directly from each state's own public wildlife agency website — the Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota Departments of Natural Resources (or that state's equivalent Game & Fish / Game & Parks agency). GuideHour links to this publicly published data — it does not host, publish, or modify it, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any state agency. GuideHour — every hour, guided. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

What’s new

Version 1.1.7 · Updated October 18, 2026

Lake history, read for you. • With Pro, stocking history: every year the DNR has stocked a lake, by size class, from fry and fingerlings to yearlings and adults. • With Pro, survey trends: how many fish the nets found, and how big, against normal for lakes like it. • The Guide's read: one tap on a fish's page and the Guide breaks down that lake's stocking and survey record. • Ask the Guide for the best stocked lakes near you, or the ones with the most trophy potential. • The Guide now suggests lures, sizes and colors for the water clarity and the light. • Guide spots say which pin is which, and the map shows the ranking. • One plan, GuideHour Pro, with a free week on the yearly plan for new subscribers. • Speed improvements and fixes. Stocking history covers Minnesota and Wisconsin; survey trends cover Minnesota for now.
