Entering Results
After a match, results can be entered quickly using the match management tools. These results appear instantly on the platform.
Every match you enter automatically generates peg history for the lake and pegs used.
This means:
- Each result updates the long‑term performance data for that peg
- The more matches you add, the more accurate and useful your peg history becomes
- Anglers can see how each peg performs over time
- Your fishery builds a stronger, more detailed performance record
Adding regular match results helps promote your venue and gives anglers confidence in your lake’s data.
Managing Lakes
Fishery accounts can add lakes, pegs, images, and descriptions to help anglers learn more about the venue.
