About Bluewater Intel
Bluewater Intel is offshore fishing intelligence for saltwater captains. It turns satellite ocean data, bathymetry, and marine forecasts into a clear read on where and when to fish — so you plan the trip before you burn the fuel. THE BITE MAP A color-coded bite forecast for your target species around your home port. Pick a species and a port, and the map shows where conditions line up. OCEAN DATA LAYERS - Sea Surface Temperature (NASA MUR, 1km) — find the Gulf Stream wall and temperature breaks - Chlorophyll-A (VIIRS, 1km) — water color and productivity, where bait stacks - Animated wind field with speed and direction - Ocean currents and front convergence - Weather radar CHARTS AND BOTTOM STRUCTURE - NOAA BlueTopo bathymetry in US waters - Ocean Bathymetric and Seafloor Relief basemaps - Depth contours with readings in feet and fathoms - Thousands of charted wrecks, reefs, ledges, lumps, and canyons - Hundreds of public boat ramps - LORAN-C TD lines for captains working from legacy numbers - Import and export waypoints as GPX FORECASTS Tap any waypoint for a 6-day forecast with wind, gusts, seas, and tides. AI CAPTAIN'S BRIEF A written pre-trip read on conditions for your port and target species. MY CATCHES Log a catch and the app auto-fills ocean and weather conditions from the same sources shown on the map. After a handful of entries, a Your Patterns panel summarizes the conditions that show up most often in your successful trips, and can break it down by species. AI CATCH MEASURE Offline camera measurement with a weight estimate. VIRTUAL TACKLE BOX Lure and bait recommendations based on current conditions. REGULATIONS AND CLOSURES See National Marine Sanctuaries, no-take reserves, HAPCs, and groundfish closures on the chart, each with the rules and a link to the official regulation page. A full directory covers federal sources and every coastal state agency. FISHING REPORTS Browse community reports by port and region, or share your own anonymously. REFERENCE Terminal tackle guides for knots, crimps, and connections, plus a fish encyclopedia with how-to guides for coastal species.
