Hey Product Hunt! I'm Filip, and I built FishMap because I got tired of the same question every time I planned a fishing trip: "Where should I go?" Existing fishing apps either want you to pay for basic features, or they're social feeds where the map is an afterthought. I wanted the map to BE the product — a living heatmap that gets smarter with every catch the community logs. Here's what's different: The heatmap is free and open. No premium tier to unlock it. Every angler benefits from every catch logged. Real regulations, not guesswork. FishMap integrates directly with Sweden's official fishing regulations API, so you can see minimum sizes, closed seasons, and protected areas right on the map. No more googling "can I keep this fish?" Built for expansion. The data model supports any country. Sweden is first because that's where I fish, but the architecture is ready for Norway, Finland, and beyond. A few things I'd love your feedback on: - Would you use a heatmap like this for your local waters? - What features would make you switch from your current catch logging method? - Which country/region should we expand to next? I'm online all day to answer questions. Try it out and let me know what you think! — Filip
