Weekly Fishing Challenges
Bragging rights, earned on the water. GilledIt's weekly challenges turn every fishing trip into a chance to compete, collect badges, and prove you're the best angler in your circle. Think of it as fantasy sports for fishing, except you actually have to get off the couch.
Five Challenge Modes: Something for Every Angler
New challenges launch every Monday. Species count: how many different fish can you catch? Weight: biggest single fish wins. Quantity: most fish caught. Length: longest fish takes the crown. Fishing day streaks: consistency counts. Whether you fish once a week or every day, there's a challenge that suits you.
Log catches to enter challenges →Earn 30+ Badges Across 7 Categories
Milestones, photography, social, streaks, competition, location, and seasonal: 30+ badges to collect. First Catch, 100 Catches, 7-Day Streak, Winter Warrior, Leaderboard #1, and more. They display on your profile for other anglers to see. Collect them like achievement trophies, except these ones prove you actually went outside.
Track your stats and PBs →Turn Your Weekend Sessions Into Competitions
Saturday morning at the lake. Your buddy texts: "Three species already. You?" You've got one bluegill. Game on. Every session becomes a competition. Every catch matters. That bonus crappie at the end of the day could be the difference between 1st and 2nd. Win or lose, you've got badges, XP, and something to talk about over beers.
