What's New in DriftLogic
1.7
August 11, 2026
A cleaner way to pick your species: Target Species is now a single dropdown — Steelhead loaded by default, with Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Channel Catfish, and Carp right below it. One tap, one species, no confusion. Matches the web tool at rockyriversteelhead.com. Also in this update: honest wording about connectivity — DriftLogic needs a connection to pull live gauges and the latest recommendations, so build your rig before you lose cell service on the water.
