Big Fish Potential is evaluated based on historical and recent catch data for every state and their waters.
This feature indicates how strong the population of big fish is in a given water and how densely big fish are distributed. It also compares waters across the state to identify the best spots for catching trophy fish.
Big Fish Potential is rated from Limited to Great, with a gauge displaying the exact rating for each water, even within those categories. An Unknown rating means Fishbrain doesn’t yet have data indicating big fish have been caught in that water.
