“I have been recommending this program to everyone. Just the simplicity of getting it done at home in the evenings instead of at the wharf won me over. No taking off wet gloves and trying to keep the paper log book dry while filling it out.”

~ Melissa Grandy, Newfoundland Enterprise Owner/Harvester

“Love the fact that when I fill out my ELOG, it gets sent directly to DFO, and I don’t have to try and remember to send it after the fishing season.”

~ Christie Day, Newfoundland Enterprise Owner/Harvester

“Vericatch ELOGS are easy to use and I enjoyed working with them on a daily basis. Eliminating the paper logbooks to use of ELOGS on your phone or tablet is the future. I would recommend ELOGS to all harvesters to download the App and get started!”

Why Electronic Logbooks?

Our ELOGS are DFO-certified nationally for: Lobster; Crab; Whelk, Bivalve Mollusks, and Squid; Groundfish (including Redfish, Cod, Turbot, and Halibut); Small Pelagics (including Mackerel, Herring, Alewife, Capelin, and Smelt); and Salmon.

Paper logbooks are repetitive, cumbersome to edit, easy to lose or damage, and a hassle to mail to the DFO.

Compare them to our ELOGS.  Electronic logbooks are easier to edit than paper logbooks, and our software proofs your logbook so you don’t get it sent back by the DFO. Plus, ELOGS are faster and easier to submit to the DFO – you just press a transmit button, no mailing required. And they’re less repetitive to fill in – you type something once, and next time the software will autofill key parts of your forms for you. 

We’re also the only Canadian ELOG provider with a dedicated app. Why? Apps are faster, more convenient, and easier to navigate than mobile websites when it comes to data collection at sea, and our app works whether or not you’re connected to the internet.
