Does anyone here keep a fishing log? In September I started keeping an online log on Fish Swami.

It seems like it could be useful after several months worth of reports are accumulated.

I have kept them for years not with perch but other species. I put dates were I fished water temps etc. everything that happened the day I caught fish. I like looking back and comparing.
I had a friend who kept a log and it was very interesting to read but it was not organized like this site. Being it's free I can see where it could be of benefit or just plain good conversation when talking with buddies. I printed out a copy of the log templet and will give it a try on paper first before joining up.
"gene"
Yes, but it's all in memory.
I've got Dad's logs from the 50's somewhere.
I wish that it showed moon phases and Solunar Table predictions on the log. Would like that to be searchable. It will show sunrise/set and moonrise/set, but only if you enter GPS coordinates for your fishing location.
I commercial fished for many years and kept a detailed daily log and now I do for recreational fishing also :fingerdance
Same here in both cases. My log is on my own site. Total control and it won't go away unless I quit paying the small costs. It costs me $72 per year for hosting and the name. I have a Drupal install, but WordPress is easier. Both free. Set it up like a blog so can't link to it here even though I'm the only user.
I do
I started this year......
I use a wall calendar with the 2"x2" squares. The color of the jig, water temp., depth, & number of crappie. I have 10 years of them, it helps to refresh your memory in the spring and early summer mostly.
