Welcome to DerbyFish
DerbyFish is a fishing competition and social platform that brings the thrill of tournament fishing to every angler, everywhere. Whether you fish farm ponds on weekends or chase trophy bass across the tournament trail, DerbyFish gives you the tools to compete, connect, and collect.
What Can You Do?
Compete in Derbies. Join fishing competitions ranging from casual neighborhood challenges to high-stakes tournaments with real prize pools. Derbies come in all shapes and sizes -- biggest fish, best five, species slams, and more. Find one that fits your style, or create your own.
Submit Verified Catches. Every catch goes through our BHRV verification system (Bump, Hero, Release, Video). Place your fish on a bump board, snap a hero shot, film the release, and let our AI plus human reviewers confirm the catch. No more fish stories that nobody believes.
Collect Fish Cards. When your catch is verified, it becomes a Fish Card -- a permanent, blockchain-backed collectible tied to that exact fish, that exact moment. Build your collection, show off your best catches, and fill your Fishdex with every species you land.
Go Fishing with Purpose. Start a Go Fish session to track your outings with GPS and timestamps. Every cast, every catch, every trip gets recorded. Look back on your fishing history and watch your skills grow over time.
Connect with Other Anglers. Follow friends, share your catches on the feed, send messages, and build your fishing network. See what others are catching, where they are fishing, and how you stack up.
