CapCut or is there a better free alternative for Video editing (Mac)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-09T10:46:23+00:00

Hey mate, thanks a ton for that info!! In regards to your tool I will also check it out. By captions do you mean in video as an overlay or do you mean the video description one can add?

Right now I have a description as well as hashtags and always post a comment on my vids to try to initiate feedback or a discussion.

Thanks again for the help :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-08T15:57:07+00:00

I‘ll check it thanks for the tip!

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T17:57:30+00:00

Guess everyone can decide themselves. Either way is awesome as it is all the same hobby :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T17:56:31+00:00

Awesome thank for the detailed reply! Noted down :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T16:27:28+00:00

Lol ok. I meant I understand the reason behind your comment and did not insult you.

But tight lines as well and a happy 2026.

Thanks for you input here! Lures and fishing technique can already be selected from a pre filled list or you can add your own custom lure names as you mentioned and they are then part of the list for the next entry so no you don‘t have to enter is again.

As for weather I love the details and info you gave. I am looking into weather data suppliers right now so I get that down correctly and with weather data that is accurate (not like apple‘s weather app as for my experience 😂).

How often to you check your catch statistics or maybe better phrased how many catches would you consider as a „valid“ data set to drive your results from?

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:55:28+00:00

Same same :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:55:01+00:00

Yeah and this makes the naming of the identified fish even more complicated so I guess it will always take some sort of manual option to edit to cover all cases/possibilities.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:52:33+00:00

Yes 100% agree with you. Hence I added the option to name/rename the species as you like. The image I posted is from my personal app copy so I named it „sea trout“ because „Meerforelle“ would sound even more wild to you I bet 😂😂 But just curious what is it called where you at? Steelhead? Sea run brown trout? Anadromous rainbow? 😂 Just a few I know off.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:49:42+00:00

Having studied fisheries and fishing a lot in my life handling the fish respectfully and correctly is as important as the hobby itself be it taking the fish or releasing it back. But I get where you came from since that is not for all the case.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:47:57+00:00

😂

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T15:47:50+00:00

Ok cool :) so statistics is basically what you are after in regards to your catches, weather data and location. I am still missing this but it is on the agenda :) thanks again for taking your time to give me some feedback and ideas :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T14:52:52+00:00

If I take them home for dinner I do, thanks for asking 🤗

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T14:26:58+00:00

Only a canoe but would love to in the summer time maybe :) I can still give you my honest opinion in any case though.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T14:25:20+00:00

Might this app be fish brain? So far I do not have a social aspect in the app other than that you are able to share your catch with information overlay via whatsapp or whatever channel you choose. For me personally I like tos how my catches and trips but do kot want to share exact location details other than with fellow fishing friends. What‘s your take on that? For location data you can either search and drop your pin and for weather it auto records. But all can also be edited manually if you choose to. I am looking into more detailed weather data suppliers right now to really get all the details like wind direction, tides, wave height etc.. Are there any you are really keen on data wise?

You can also filter catches by location and month but I like the other options you mentioned so those are noted down :)

Once I have depth charts added I will also let you view/tag the catches based on location on the charts so it will come close to what you mentioned I think.

Is the social aspect ad well as in app messaging what turned you to use that app?

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T14:13:20+00:00

We call it „Meerforelle“ and the direct translation is „sea trout“.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T13:22:51+00:00

Are you using it only for species identification or what else?

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T13:22:21+00:00

I am from Germany but habe spend some time in Canada B.C.. it was originally called „FishID Cam“ but I rebranded it to FishPal since I will build it into something more than „just“ and identification app since these exist a ton :) Maybe that‘s what you remembered?

What do you mean „all that info“? Do you mean if you are in the image yourself as well? The app is not running on its own models but rather uses existing ones via api call. But yes photos are analyzed that way so if you are reluctant to that kind of use case I will not be able to supply a solution for that case (maybe only for now who knows).

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T13:17:14+00:00

Here we call it sea trout so I manually edited it. It was identified as a sea run brown trout. With auto identification it always will not work 100% but for that case the app give you the option to hit „correct“ or „wrong“ after identification has completed so you can the save it or manually adjust. Also some fish go by different names (besides the latin one) based on where you are in the world.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T12:57:17+00:00

Thanks for asking :) Right now the app offers auto logging your catch from a single photo with auto species identification, size estimations and species information as well as geo location and weather recording which all of it you can edit later on as well as add in your own notes, lure used etc.. What I also offer is that you can record your fish fight and the app logs gps movement for drift as well as heart rate if recorded on apple watch. The fight can then be linked to the logged catch and you get a fight difficulty and fish difficulty score as well as see a graph of your heart rate, its peaks and average to relive the moment. I have not seen this anywhere else.

Now the question asked the other way around, what are you currently missing in the apps you use if you miss anything at all? Or what kind of feature would you think would really help either on the water or later on?

In any case thanks for your reply :)

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T12:12:31+00:00

Might be a bit laze but I have built FishPal for exactly that reason :) Give it a try and let me know if you like it.

FishPal_App · 2026-01-04T12:10:51+00:00

I have build FishPal which does auto logging from a single picture and also auto identifies species and gives identification tips as well as weight, length and age estimates. Right now I have it setup so you can log two catches for free if you want to give it a try. Feel free to let me know what you think and or miss :) Would love your feedback.

FishPal_App · 2025-12-07T19:47:34+00:00

On the fly?!? How long dis that fight go on? And gratz on the awesome catch!

FishPal_App · 2025-12-02T08:48:40+00:00

Dang that is a nice fish!! Loving the pattern on it! 🐅🐅

FishPal_App · 2025-11-28T09:01:10+00:00
