Shannon Rohde, founder of Wake and Lake
Built by an angler

Fishing experience, translated into useful decisions.

Wake and Lake is designed around a simple idea: technology should help anglers understand the water without getting between them and the reason they went fishing.

“Make the information practical, keep the angler in control, and never pretend guidance is certainty.”
