    • Inshore fishing includes land-based fishing from beaches and inland areas within the designated boundary map.

    • Offshore fishing includes fishing from a vessel within the boundary map. Any offshore species caught from land or inshore waters—such as snapper or tuna—will remain eligible for offshore categories.

    • Freshwater competitors may fish any freshwater body located within the event boundaries.

    Please refer to the Boundary Map for detailed location information.

Important App update

In line with the latest compliance policies set by the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, anglers now have the ability to:

  • Delete their account

  • Permanently delete all stored data (both local and server-based) associated with their account

Please be aware that if an angler chooses to delete their account, all fish data submitted through any of our apps—current and historical—will be permanently removed from our system and cannot be recovered.

If an account is deleted during or after an event, this will directly impact scoreboards, results, and verification checks.

This requirement is part of standard compliance policies enforced by Apple and Google and applies to all apps on your device.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Stefan at stefan@info-fish.net.
