Excellent for navigating the lake
Kudos to Shad for creating the app. This app helped me a couple times while on the lake. It’s applicable for any lake, not just Dogskin.
Easy to use, easy to add waypoints.

What's New in Dogskin
2.0
April 13, 2026
The biggest update yet! • NEW Weather tab — live wind map, temperature, wind speed and direction, sky conditions, and precipitation forecast in glanceable charts. Check the bite right from your boat. • Solunar forecast moved inside the Weather tab. Same calculations, better home. • Camera and photo library — snap a fish photo right from the catch screen, or pull one from your library. Photos save to your camera roll automatically. • Account management — delete your account and all your data anytime from Settings. • Privacy Policy and Support links in Settings. • iPhone Map — quick-catch buttons along the bottom, Add Waypoint and Locate buttons stacked on the right. Easier one-handed use. • iPad Settings fills the full screen instead of a narrow sidebar. • Apple Watch — length slider now starts at the right place per species (Walleye 18", Northern Pike 36"). Fewer drags to log a real catch. • Auto-detects stale offline maps and prompts you to re-download when the lake data updates. • Stability and compliance polish under the hood. Tight lines.
