Fill your fish houses. Get paid automatically.
List your fish houses and guided trips free. Anglers book and pay online, and you pay a commission only when we send you a booking.
Free listing
Photos, rates and a live availability calendar on your lake’s page.
Paid by Stripe
The angler’s card is held until you confirm. Then the money goes straight to your bank.
On your phone
Every booking lands on your phone calendar. Your own calendar blocks dates, so no double-booking.
Standard rate 10%, only on bookings
No sign-up fee, no monthly fee. Book 10 trips in a season and every booking after that is just 8%. $100 Season Pass: your first 3 bookings are commission-free (each carries a pass-holder fee, $20 minimum), then just 6.5%. Minimum Hardwater Connection fee: $2 per booking, so small bookings still cover card processing.
