Project poster

In the State of Washington, catches of popular fish species are reported by recreational fisherman through paper cards. With this system, only an estimated 15 percent of fish catches are reported. Hook and Tell solves this problem by giving users a digital solution to report their catches and connect with other fisherfolk. Our platform will increase the catch reporting on recreational fishing, resulting in an increase in data and resources for Washington State to better protect its fish and wildlife.
