  • Can’t escape bump board ad

    Every time I enter a tournament the x to close the ad for the bump board they want you to buy won’t work cause it’s crammed behind my battery level on my phone so I have to close the app and restart because I can’t click anywhere without going to a separate site to buy a bump board I don’t want.

    I've see what your are saying. For some reason, your phone puts the x in a place you can't find? If so, that is a google ad problem. They have complete control over where the buttons are on their ads. We have to wait for them to fix that or we would have to eliminate all ads. update:Google has made an update and we don't see that problem with closing the ad any more. We have made sure that the ad does not interfere in any way with your tournament. There are no ads when you go to enter a fish and nothing will stop you from competing. This ad was only available during the "join a tournament" process and a bump board was offered because it is useful for your tournament.
  • Great App

    I’ve used this app to run an ice fishing derby each year for the last 3 years. Easy to use and the admin help from Fishdonkey is amazing. If you need help with anything they are always there to help.
  • Not worth the download

    Nothing but problems, and nothing works correctly and you have to have it approved by the creators. They only give you 6 tournaments and then it makes you pay for them

    Sorry you feel that way, but this really is not an app review. We have had over 9000 tournaments on our app so it definitely works. This sounds more like a complaint that we are not giving you free use of the app for life. We don't charge tournament directors for tournaments... we charge a small fee to anglers when they join a paid tournament. We have other payment options as well as the app is very flexible. Our fee is less than sales tax in most cases. Thank you for trying the app.
  • Fish Donkey Review

    I’ve only used Fish Donkey as a competitor and not an organizer. Im very happy with how easy it is to use this app. I think all tournaments will start using your app.
    One thing I would really like to see is a GEOGRAPHIC SPECIFIC FEATURE for fishing tournaments that are available. I live in Alberta Canada. It would be great to be able to find out what tournaments are available in AB, or even Saskatchewan or BC. I would have missed knowing about the Bonnyville Pontiac’s tournament in AB if I hadn’t accidentally heard someone talking about it.
    Thank you and keep up the good work.

    Hello Fish Donkey,

    When fishing solo in a tournament it has proven to be quite difficult to take photos with one hand to submit and enter a fish. Would it not be possible to utilize the camera picture delay function? That way an angler could use a tripod and have time to use both hands to get a good photo holding the fish and use both hands to hold fish on the bump board correctly and be able to sway the tail. I lost a 1/2” on what should have been a 32.5” lake trout entry because I did not have a second hand to help sway the tail on my bump board. Plus two hands is a much better way to provide safer fish handling. Please provide your feedback.

    Cheers,

  • A bank-beater’s dream!

    Without a boat, it can be a challenge to find tournaments to be a coangler. Their app allows me to find and fish tournaments competitively against people across the country at waters near me. ITS A BLAST!!

  • FishDonkey is an Excellent and Fun App

    FishDonkey is easy to use and makes fishing a lot more fun. Perhaps the best thing about FishDonkey is that catch & release is so good for the fish! FishDonkey is the only way to go!!!

  • Fishing league

    Used in our fishing league this summer. It was a great option made the league that much more fun.
  • Straightforward app

    The FishDonkey app is easy to use, it works well even in areas without cell service (just remember to upload your pictures from your Digital Livewell when you get back in an area with service or WiFi). I’ve used this for a bunch of virtual fishing tournaments and really like it.
  • A MUST HAVE for any tournament angler!

    I love this app! It’s so simple and easy to use and there are so many different tournaments you can get involved in, many at super low cost or even free! Even semi-pro tournaments are much easier and better for the fish with using this app. Best part is, there’s always a real person you can talk to if you have issues. Thanks Darren at FishDonkey!
