Birch Grove

Fishing software,
built in Minnesota.

Birch Grove is an independent software studio. Our first app turns decades of Minnesota DNR lake surveys into a straightforward way to find where the fish actually are.

Fishing Insight

Minnesota's lakes, ranked by real catch-rate and size data from state fisheries surveys — for walleye, pike, bass, crappie, bluegill, perch, and muskie. Interactive depth maps, current conditions, special regulations, and a private trip log, all in one app.

Why we built it

Most "best lakes" lists are guesswork, old forum threads, or whoever shouts loudest. The Minnesota DNR has surveyed these lakes for decades — that data was just hard to actually use. We built Fishing Insight to put it in your pocket: honest numbers, no accounts, no ads, and your trip log stays on your phone.
