SnapHatch App – AI Powered Fly Fishing Guide

Take a picture of aquatic insects to instantly identify them and match the hatch. Look for insects in spiderwebs, under rocks and logs along the water’s edge, or spot spent and crippled insects near the shore or floating in back eddies. Snap a photo with the app—it will identify the insect and ask about fish activity (Reading the Rise). Based on the information provided the app will recommend the best fly imitations and presentations to help you fish with confidence. You can also use the Manual Selection option to identify insects without taking a picture.

• Mayflies: Nymphs, Emergers, Duns, Spinners
• Caddisflies: Larvae, Emergers, Adults
