In fact, what is JOBEL?
JOBEL is an electronic logbook (also known as JBE or E-LOG) for commercial fishing. In 2025, Fisheries and Oceans Canada will make the use of electronic logbooks compulsory for several types of fishery.
JOBEL is an application compatible with any smartphone, tablet or computer. Thanks to innovative state-of-the-art technology, you can access it offline, without internet connection, when you are at sea. Once back at the dock, when an Internet or cellular connection is available at home, for example, you can transmit your data to Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Your trips are saved in your JOBEL account and can be accessed at any time from any smartphone.
Forgot your phone, tablet or computer at home? No problem, just connect to your JOBEL from another phone.
WHY JOBEL?
The strength of the JOBEL electronic logbook is also the close,day-to-day relationship between the tean and canadian fishermen for over 30 years. Made by fishermen for fishermen, we’ve been making adjustments and improvements to your JBE since 2017 to meet your reality and needs.

HERING
For me, it’s the essential tool for protection. It’s the essential tool for the future of our fisheries.
SNOW CRAB
The JOBEL is less complicated than a paper logbook. There is less information to enter on trap positioning. The agglomeration system is simpler than entering traps by quadrilateral. I certainly wouldn’t go back to paper.
LOBSTER
JOBEL is so easy and quick to use, with a few clicks on my phone I can fill out my logbook at sea every day. And I can consult my landings from previous years in a few seconds’’.
