The platform
Everything a modern fishery needs — in one place
Two experiences in one system: powerful control for the fishery, and an app anglers actually want to use.
Run your fishery on real data
Understand your stock, showcase it on your own site, and keep control of everything that goes public.
Know your stock
Stock intelligence, not guesswork
Every capture builds a living record. See total fish tagged, how many are gaining or losing condition, average weight change and an at-a-glance lake health score — plus your biggest fish and most-caught leaderboards.
- ✓ Weight growth over each fish’s life
- ✓ Gaining / losing / maintaining breakdown
- ✓ Lake health status
- ✓ Biggest & most-caught leaderboards

Your website, alive
A live catch feed you fully control
Copy one line of code and show approved catches on your own site. Choose photos on or off, your accent colour, cards or list, which details to show — then paste it. You approve every catch and photo before it goes public.
- ✓ Fully customisable — colours, layout, fields
- ✓ Photos gated by your approval
- ✓ One line of embed code
- ✓ Keeps your site fresh automatically

Publish a live leaderboard too
As well as the feed, drop a customisable “top catches” leaderboard onto your own site — ranked by weight, all-time or by week or month, in your accent colour. Another single line of code, and you still approve every catch that appears.
- ✓ Top N biggest catches — you choose
- ✓ All-time, this month or this week
- ✓ One entry per fish, or every catch
- ✓ Same one-line embed — feed and board are separate snippets

You’re in control
Catch approval built in
Guests log catches in seconds; nothing appears publicly until you say so. Review the weight and photo, approve or reject — big-fish alerts ping your phone the moment a lump comes out.
- ✓ Approve or reject every guest catch
- ✓ Photo moderation before it’s public
- ✓ Big-fish weight alerts (push / email / WhatsApp)

Protect your fish
Theft protection on a live registry
Every tag sits on a shared registry. Report a fish stolen and anyone scanning it — a buyer, another fishery, a bailiff — instantly sees the alert and its rightful home. That breaks the resale market thieves rely on.
- ✓ Permanent, unique ID per fish
- ✓ Report stolen → flagged network-wide
- ✓ Public tag check for provenance

Fish passports
A shareable passport for every fish
Every tagged fish gets its own public page — photo history, weight-growth curve and full capture log — built automatically from approved catches. Perfect for provenance, marketing and proving a fish is yours.
- ✓ Rich link previews when shared on socials
- ✓ Scan any tag to verify it against the theft registry
- ✓ Per-fish controls: keep it private, or hide weight dips
Already tagging elsewhere?
Bring your fish across — keep your tags
Switching is the hard part on every other system. Not here. Import your already-tagged fish and their history with our column-matching tool, or let our team migrate you. No re-tagging, no starting from scratch.
Why ChipACarp
Built to be the best, not the cheapest
Point for point against the dated tools fisheries have put up with for years.
