SnapHatch Fly Fishing System
The SnapHatch Fly Fishing System integrates the SnapHatch App, Fly Kit, and Bug Out Bag so you have the tools to match the hatch on the water and off the grid. Whether fishing local streams or exploring new territory, this system provides the insight and clarity to fish with confidence and achieve better results on the water.
SnapHatch Fly Fishing System includes:
- SnapHatch Fly Kit - 200 flies in a double-sided fly box
- Bug Out Bag - Quick-dry bug seine
- SnapHatch App - 1-Year Subscription
The SnapHatch Fly Kit features 200 flies (80 Dry Flies and 120 Nymphs) organized in a waterproof, double-sided fly box (7.5"L x 4.5"W x 1.5"D).
Built specifically for the SnapHatch App, this Kit includes every imitation the App recommends.
The Fly Kit is organized to match the layout of the Digital Fly Box within the App; so when you match the hatch, the App highlights where the imitation is located in the Fly Kit.
Included Imitations:
- Mayflies: Nymphs, Emergers, Duns, Spinners
- Caddisflies: Larvae, Emergers, Adults
- Midges: Larvae, Emergers, Adults
- Mosquitoes: Larvae, Emergers, Adults
- Stoneflies: Nymphs, Adults
- Damselflies & Dragonflies: Nymphs, Adults
- Other Essentials: Scuds & Sowbugs, Annelids, Water Boatmen, Egg patterns
The SnapHatch Bug Out Bag is a lightweight, packable, quick-dry mesh seine designed to fit most landing nets. This essential streamside tool allows you to quickly gather aquatic insects so you can identify them with the SnapHatch App and find the right imitation in the SnapHatch Fly Kit for better results on the water.
Insect Recognition
Match the Hatch with Insect Scan—image recognition built to function off the grid. Scan and identify an insect, evaluate fish activity, and select a Reading the Rise option—then the app recommends the most effective imitations and presentations. When a scan isn’t possible, use Manual Selection to compare the hatch to a catalog of identified insects and select the closest option to generate the same recommended match.
Digital Fly Box
The Digital Fly Box is designed to match the specific layout of the SnapHatch Fly Kit. You can also use the Digital Fly Box layout to organize your own fly box for streamlined access. When a hatch is matched and the app presents the best imitation, tap the Fly Kit icon in the corner of the image to highlight its location in the Digital Fly Box—then choose that fly from your kit. To learn about each imitation, tap any fly icon to open the Fly Detail page, which provides specific imitation and presentation information.
Hatch Log
When you identify an insect, the app automatically tracks the date, time, and location to build your own Hatch Log. Reference stored Match details and recommended flies, with the option to update the Reading the Rise selection, to provide a new match as fish behavior changes.
Catch Log
For a streamlined way to log each catch—upload a photo of your fish, and the app automatically populates the date, time, and location along with real-time conditions—including river flow, barometric pressure, and weather. Confirm the species, weight, and length, then add your imitation and presentation to create a complete record in the Catch Log.
Map
The interactive map provides an overview of Flow Stations, your Hatch Log, your Catch Log, and Live Waters—active hatches reported across the US. By evaluating your recorded data with current conditions on the water, you can identify proven patterns for more successful fishing. Downloadable map sections ensure these insights are always available, even when you are off the grid.
Fishing Tips
The Fishing Tips offer practical insights designed to help you understand fish patterns and fly presentation. Offline resources include presentation illustrations, instructional videos for essential knots, and seasonal fish feeding behavior. Use these resources to present each fly more effectively and fish with confidence.

I have been fly fishing now for a couple of years and have had minimal success. I decided to try this system and what a difference it has made. I have caught more fish in the last 2 weeks than in the last 2 years. I am enjoying the app and learning more about insects as well as how fish are feeding. The fly kit gives me confidence that I have what I need to match the hatch anywhere I go!
1. What are the trout eating?
2. What fly matches what the trout are eating?
3. How do you present the fly to act like what the trout are eating?
The SnapHatch app can quickly answer all three of these questions in real time, even without cell service making it ideal to use while on the stream or lake. Snap a picture of any nymph or adult insect and the app will help you Match the Hatch! Spend more time catching fish and less time wondering what fly to use!
I’ve mostly used the SnapHatch app so far, and it’s a clean way to go from “what is this bug?” to “what should I tie on?” The offline insect recognition + match suggestions reduce guesswork, and the hatch/catch logs (conditions, water data, etc.) feel like they’ll pay off over time. I haven’t used the box much yet, but I like that the kit is built to match the app.
I have loved fly fishing for a long time. My biggest problem though, is trying to figure out what fly I am supposed to use. The app and fly box setup has made this effortless. I don’t even have to think when I go out fishing anymore. I input what I’m seeing into the app and it takes it from there. It has been interesting getting to learn about what the fish are feeding on and the different stages of an insect too. 10/10 recommend!!!
As a longtime fly fisherman (60) plus years. This app is helpful, especially in new water that’s not familiar. It is also easy for us older people to use without having to be overly tech savvy. If you follow its recommendations it will increase your bite and catch success. I highly recommend this product.
