A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Before you head out.

Need a hand?
Get in touch

Is Bait Locator free?

Yes. Bait Locator is free to download and use on Android and iPhone. Tackle shop accounts are free, too.

Where do bait reports come from?

Reports come from tackle shop owners and anglers. Store updates and customer reports are identified in the app so you can see who shared the information.

What do the map colors mean?

Green means the bait has been reported in stock today. Orange means it may be out, so check with the shop. Red means there is no in-stock report for today.

How fresh are the reports?

Reports reset at midnight and apply to the current day. Bait can sell out between updates, so checking with the shop is helpful when availability is uncertain.

Do I need an account?

You can explore the map and stock reports before signing up. Create a free account to save favorite shops and report bait availability.
