Fishing App

Hi

I have tried a few apps for my android and Ipad but they haven't been all that good

Any suggestions for an Ipad / Iphone app that gives all the data, ie best days and times

Any info will be much appreciated

Thanks

Eric

Well, rather than just beg assistance from FW readers, why don't you tell us what apps you have tried and why they were no good?

Who knows, it might even help someone else?

Personally I'm using the paper almanac, it sits on my desk to remind me when I should at least try to get out.

Sat, 2013-05-25 07:20

I have fishing mate on the Ipad. That gives best days but from what I can see, no times and I have fishing deluxe on my android and it seems to give all the info, but doesn't always update when moving from one screen to another, Calender to Main. The other concern is that they dont show the same days as good or bad days.

Fishing mate shows today as best fishing but fishing deluxe shows it only as average

Paper is great, but nice to have info go with you when possible

 Used to use fish cal, and the paper almanac (yellow cover) the good days never line up with the days I'm not workin. I'm mainly land based so I fish the tides. AU tides pro and sea breeze, split the difference, works for me.

i check sea breeze, wilky

Wed, 2013-05-29 20:01

i check sea breeze, wilky weather and tides4fishing and take an average from them all.  Not weather related but i find the navionics app is excellent for navigating and finding and marking fishing spots.  I dont have a gps built in and just have my iphone in a waterproof cover and navigate using the navionics app

I'm not sure what point

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

I merely pointed out that he was asking for some help, but at the same he knew a little of the same problem he was experiencing, ie; he had tried some apps and found them lacking.

Nice that he now told us what he was using, so people can say what they thought of the same apps, or avoid them, themselves.
