Field & Stream's Catchbook app for the iPhone is a social fishing journal that automatically turns fish photos into catch records complete with detailed weather conditions, then lets you share that information on a map with fishing buddies you trust. The map is private, but the photos of your fish are public, which means everyone can see what all Catchbook users are landing around the country (and around the world!).

Since we launched the app in April, more than 6,300 people have installed it on their phones and have posted thousands of photos (check out our editors' picks for the 50 best shots from September here).

If you fish, and you have an iPhone, we'd love it if you'd check out our app. Here's an extra incentive: We're giving away a 16GB iPhone 5 (MSRP: $649)—plus OtterBox Defender Series ($49.95) and Commuter Series ($34.95) cases to go with it—to the best photo posted to the app during the month of October. Also, the best photo each week wins one of OtterBox's great new iPhone cases. Click the link to download this fishing app from the iTunes store.

In the struggle between being critically endangered and hugely profitable, guess which one wins? Uh, I'll take hugely profitable for a thousand, Trebek...

From this story on businessinsider.com:
A Chinese fisherman has netted a fortune after catching a critically endangered, but hugely prized, fish worth £300,000 (That's about $473,000 to us Yanks...). The fisherman, whose identity has not been revealed, caught a Chinese Bahaba, or Giant Yellow Croaker, off the coast of Fujian province last week. After a bidding war, a local fishmonger paid him three million yuan (£300,000) for the 176lb fish, or £1,700 a pound, according to the Strait News, a local newspaper in Fujian.

The fisherman told the newspaper he had found the fish floating on the surface of the sea and had "picked it up." The size of the fish caught the attention of his fellow villagers, and the specimen was quickly identified. After the auction, the fisherman said he would use the windfall to buy a bigger boat.

The winner of last week's Catchbook Photo Contest for the month of July is Ryan Brownlee, who submitted this photo of a king salmon.
