onX Fish User Reviews

This app has a lot of potential, but plenty of issues

At this point, the app is in beta, so hopefully most of the wrinkles will be ironed out. But if they don’t make some major changes, I wouldn’t pay for it. The interface, which is the same as the other onX apps, is great. The mapping is not very good. Contour lines on lake maps are low resolution and not very accurate. The property lines are not as well defined as onX hunt. The area insights are basic, but in my experience, quite accurate. While being able to search for fishing spots is great, the search does not seem to be very good. It misses some lakes that fit your criteria but includes others that don’t. My biggest problem with the app is that the fish survey data is not well presented. It doesn’t match lengths to abundance data, and just presents the best data available. This makes lakes with unstable fish populations look way better than they actually are. Hopefully they improve this app, because it is definitely unique in its approach, but it needs some major work yet before I pay for it.

Good app

I love almost everything about this app, but I would love to see eelpout or burbot added to the list of fish. Other then that this app is key in finding spots on the water to fish.

It’s an all inclusive fish scouting experience

This app has completely transformed how I plan my fishing adventures. With the ability to filter by species, trophy potential, and abundance, finding the perfect fishing spot has never been easier. One of the standout features is the access to DNR survey data, right at your fingertips, making research seamless and efficient.

I also love the built-in weather reports and radar overlays, which are invaluable for keeping an eye on changing conditions while on the water. It’s practical, intuitive, and incredibly detailed.

Honestly, this is the only fishing app I rely on now. It’s an all-in-one tool that just keeps getting better with every update. If you’re serious about fishing, this app isn’t just A game-changer it is THE game-changer!

Good start - needs depth contours!

Has great potential… I love OnX HUNT and I’m sure FISH is in its early development stages… BUT the most important feature an app like this needs is detailed depth contours.

I have to imagine that’s coming, and I’m sure Navionics charges an arm and a leg to use their contour maps but that is a must-have.

Add Navionics-quality, detailed depth contours, I’ll pay for it and add two more stars to my review.

Lake Contours

Just saw an news article about this app and thought I would give it a try. Has great info and seems easy to use however haven’t figured out how to add a “numbered” spot to a map and include the details/onfo that exist on some lakes but not all. To that point it seems that only lakes with fish info include lake contour lines for all WI which seems odd. Knowing the app is still in development I’m hopeful that that changes in future updates. Also seems to be lacking ice fishing info but also guessing that’s coming in future updates. I will for sure be using the app this ice season and see how it goes. Hence 3 star review at this time.

I’m very impressed with this app!

It’s the best compilation of fishing info I’ve seen on an app for the angler looking to get out and explore!

It’s a good start

I see this expanding in it’s usefulness as OnX continues to massage the features. I’m excited for what’s to come

Awesome job, folks!

Great app and a real timesaver when scouting. Thanks for a job well done.

Amazing

Very good interactive app

Fish regs per lake is huge. Being able to quickly look up limits and species!!

Very nice layout

The app is very easy to use and understand. The phone does not have any problems running this app unlike other fishing maps. It provides the user with a lot of information on the lake and the fish in the lake. I am very happy and will be recommending it to everyone that is interested!
