Vericatch is Canada’s only nationally certified electronic logbook (ELOG) provider for Lobster and Crab.

Why electronic logbooks?

While logbooks have existed for decades, the amount of information that fishermen are asked to record keeps increasing, as does the work to track all that info. Paper logbooks are:

  • Repetitive
  • Cumbersome to edit
  • Easy to lose or damage
  • A hassle to physically submit to the DFO

Not only that, but they don’t provide direct benefits to fishermen. On the other hand, electronic catch reporting makes it easy to enter and submit your trip logs digitally and securely while making your data work for you. Our ELOGS are:

  • Secure and easy to use
  • Equipped with autofill functions to save you time and effort
  • Set to alert you about any missing mandatory fields automatically
  • Easy to submit to the DFO via a click of a button
  • Designed so you can collect and analyze your fishing data to understand better when and where to fish to maximize revenue and monitor key expenses
