For Southeast charter captains & serious anglers
Know your waters. Know the rules. Before you leave the dock.
NOAA scatters closure bulletins, reporting rules, MRIP data, and tides across a dozen places. FishAlert pulls them into one offline, permit-aware wheelhouse screen — and pushes a closure alert the moment a rule change touches your vessel and position.
Everything for the go/no-go call, in one place
A compliance-first operating tool for federal for-hire captains — not another fishing content app.
Per-vessel closure alerts
NOAA closures, openings, and rule changes pushed the moment they touch your permit, region, and species — via push, email, and in-app.
Offline wheelhouse
One screen with the rules for your position, active closures, tides, weather, and saved spots — that works with no signal offshore.
Tides, currents & weather
Live NOAA CO-OPS tides and currents plus NWS marine weather, folded into your pre-trip go/no-go call.
Permit-aware watchlists
Tell it your permits, regions, and target species once. Every bulletin is filtered to what actually affects your boat.
Offline maps & closure zones
Pre-downloaded Mapbox tile packs for the Southeast coast, with closure-zone overlays and your saved-spot annotations.
Trust indicators
Traffic-light freshness on every offline screen, a stale banner past 24 hours, and alerts only from confidence-gated, clean parses.
How it works
- 1
Scattered government records
NOAA spreads closure bulletins, reporting rules, MRIP data, tides, and weather across separate sites and feeds.
- 2
One canonical record for your vessel
FishAlert ingests and cross-checks them into a single, permit-aware picture of what applies to your exact boat and position.
- 3
An alert before you leave the dock
When a closure, opening, or rule change hits your waters, you get a trustworthy alert in time to change the plan.
Pricing

Built from public federal data — for the ~3,000 boats it actually regulates
Every rule, closure, tide, and weather reading comes from public U.S. government sources — NOAA FOSS, MRIP, Stock SMART/SIS, regional fishery bulletins, NWS, and NOAA CO-OPS. FishAlert is the only offline-first, permit-aware compliance + operations app built for federal for-hire captains in NC, SC, GA, and East Florida.
