FishBrain, a social network for sport fishers, has closed a $2.4 million Series A funding round. Investors include Northzone, Active Venture Partners, GP Bullhound, Edastra Venture Capital, Mathias Ackermand, Rikard Steiber and Almi. Its mobile-and web-based social network enables anglers to gather and manage meteorological data, and allows them to share fishing trips and catches with peers. The company says it currently has 430,000 registered users, and 130,000 catches have been logged within the app.
FishBrain was founded in 2010 by current CPO Jens Persson. It previously raised a total of $1.3 million through three Seed rounds, according to AngelList.
