BOATING SAFETY & CHECK-IN TOOLS
Safety should always come first.
TideLock includes a vision for boating safety features, including SOS assistance and check-in tools to help anglers stay connected while enjoying time on the water.
Safety features are supplemental and are not a substitute for marine emergency communication equipment.
OUR BIGGEST COMMITMENT: TIDELOCK IS FREE!
Let's talk about something every angler understands.
Fishing is expensive!
Between fishing rods, reels, tackle, electronics, bait, boats, fuel, maintenance, fishing licenses, and countless other expenses, our community already spends an arm and a leg pursuing something we love.
As an angler myself, I understand those costs firsthand.
That's why my vision for TideLock has always been different.
I WANT TIDELOCK TO BE ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE, REGARDLESS OF EXPERIENCE OR FINANCIAL BACKGROUND.
TIDELOCK IS BUILT TO BE FREE FOR ALL USERS!
No angler should feel excluded from useful fishing technology simply because they cannot afford another expensive subscription.
Our goal is to give back to the fishing community that has given us so much.
We believe great fishing experiences, meaningful connections, and access to helpful technology shouldn't come with unnecessary financial barriers.
A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER
Bobby Watcharasakunee
Founder & Creator | TideLock™
United States Marine Corps Veteran
"First and foremost, I want to personally thank everyone who has supported TideLock since the very beginning.
What started as a simple idea and a passion for fishing has slowly evolved into something much bigger than I ever imagined.
I won't pretend this journey has been easy.
There have been countless sleepless nights, endless brainstorming sessions, challenges, setbacks, and moments when turning an idea into reality seemed nearly impossible.
But through it all, one thing has remained constant: my belief in what TideLock can become and what it can mean for our fishing community.
As a United States Marine Corps veteran, I've always believed in dedication, perseverance, teamwork, and never giving up when things get difficult.
Those same values have helped guide me throughout this journey.
I didn't create TideLock simply to build another technology platform or business.
I created TideLock because I wanted to give something meaningful back to the fishing community.
Fishing has a unique way of bringing people together.
It doesn't matter where you come from, what you do for a living, how old you are, or how much experience you have.
When we're out on the water, we share the same excitement, the same challenges, and the same passion.
My hope is that TideLock becomes a platform that brings anglers together, helps beginners learn, gives experienced fishermen better tools, supports charter captains and small businesses, and creates lasting memories for generations to come.
I also want everyone to understand something important:
TideLock isn't just my vision anymore. I want it to become OUR community's platform.
Your feedback matters.
Your suggestions matter.
Your experiences matter.
If there's something you love, tell us!
If there's something we can improve, tell us!
If there's a feature you'd like to see, please reach out!
We're listening, and we're committed to continuously learning, improving, and building something the fishing community can truly be proud of.
To everyone who believed in this idea, encouraged me, shared their thoughts, and stood by us from the beginning, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Your support means more than words can express.
This is only the beginning, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes us.
Built with passion. Driven by innovation. Inspired by the fishing community.
Thank you all, and tight lines!"
