Title: IPHONE APPLICATIONS FISHERMAN USE FOR IPHONE!!!
Post by: Fishnewbie on April 27, 2013, 09:23:09 PM
I downloaded 2 apps for my Iphone, one being TIDE GRAPH, which I love. The other one is fishing+ which tries to predict when the best times of fishing are. I was just wondering what apps, if any, our veteran fisherman use. Thanks!!!

I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about the best times for fishing one.  Any given moment can be a great time for fishing at one spot and a comparatively weak one for a spot 1/2 mile away.  Then, the wind direction, moon phase, tide cycle, or any of a million other factors can change, and it will flip. I don't think any app is gonna tell you that. That said, I have heard good things about the Navionics app, and anything that helps you keep a log could be useful t^

This..  I remember being out in a nasty wind against tide thinking I had no shot.  I nailed 2 keepers in the first 30 minutes and was playing catch and release before heading in after an hour of fishing. 

As for great Apps, Navionics is awesome.
