FishCast: an offline fishing forecast for real water conditions
Cell service dies where the fishing gets good. FishCast caches weather and solunar data on your phone so you still get bite windows, pressure trends, and wind — offline.
Key takeaways
- FishCast is an offline-first fishing forecast app from Knox Studios.
- It caches weather and solunar data so forecasts work in dead zones.
- On-device solunar computing shows major and minor bite windows.
- Premium adds NOAA coastal tides and bite-window reminders.
Built for the water, not the city
Generic weather apps fail the moment you lose signal. FishCast is a fishing forecast app with an offline-first cache and on-device solunar computing so anglers still see bite-ready conditions offshore or in a canyon.
Key features

- Solunar bite windows — major and minor feeding times from moon and sun phases.
- Barometric pressure & wind — rising, falling, or steady trends at a glance.
- Coastal tides (Premium) — NOAA CO-OPS predictions plus reminders before major windows.
Privacy and simplicity
No account is required. The UI is minimal and dark for wet-handed use. Get FishCast on Google Play or read more on the FishCast page.
