Know Where To Start Before You Ever Idle Around Guessing

AI-ranked fishing spots, scored by species, season, and time of day — with the reasoning behind every pin.

You've got one Saturday. Maybe a few hours before the kids get restless or the buddy trip has to head back in. The worst way to spend that window is idling around a lake you've never fished, watching the sonar and hoping something looks right. The AI Hotspot Finder exists so you can skip that part — and get to the part where you're actually fishing.

What It Does

Fish Guide Pro's Hotspot Finder uses AI to rank specific locations on your lake based on your target species, the current season, and time of day. Instead of a generic contour map you have to interpret yourself, hotspots show up already scored and pinned — each one with a confidence score, a recommended depth range, and suggested techniques.

Spots aren't static. A top walleye location in May won't be the same spot in August, so the AI recalculates by season, layering structure data — humps, points, breaks, flats — with species-specific seasonal patterns to surface what's most likely holding fish right now.

Best used for

  • Finding where to start on a brand-new lake without hours of idle scouting
  • Getting fresh hotspot suggestions on a lake you know well, for a season you don't fish it in often
  • Comparing confidence scores across a few spots to decide where to spend your limited time
  • Locating winter structure for ice fishing
  • Pairing a hotspot with a waypoint so it's saved for next time

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI decide where the fish are?

It combines lake structure — humps, points, breaks, flats — with species-specific seasonal behavior patterns, then scores each spot with a confidence rating and explains the reasoning in plain language.

Does it work on lakes I've never fished before?

Yes — that's the main use case. Hotspots are generated from lake structure and DNR data, not personal history on that lake.

Do hotspots change by season?

Yes. A location scored highly for walleye in May will be rescored for August, since fish relate to structure differently across seasonal transitions.
