Almost 75% say the same thing, use electronics to find fish then use shakey head, c-rig, drop shot. Scanned several areas on the areas suggested and found NOTHING! WAY overpriced for what is given. Actual gps waypoints would be a plus, some areas of the lake don’t have cell service rendering this app useless if you try to load it on the water to go to the suggested areas. ### 2/5 — Game *2020-03-14, version 2.1.2* Won’t let me make a password ### 2/5 — Just too expensive *2019-09-06, version 1.0* Concept is great but $26 per month per lake? That’s just too much money for shared information of unknown quality. ### 2/5 — Good idea, not enough info *2019-06-09, version 1.0* $26/month PER LAKE?!?!?!?! That’s about as much as boat payment if you buy all the lakes!!!! ### 2/5 — Potential Is There *2019-02-28, version 1.0* Good idea. I want to use the lake Conroe one and it is not available and will not let me subscribe to it. Also $20+ a month per lake you subscribe to seems a little steep. Would be a better idea to have it a be a yearly fee for a region like navionics and other chip makers do. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2024-10-03, version 2.2.3* Unless you are an absolute first day or first week on the water beginner then this app is of little to no value. Very very basic. Honestly, prolly AI generated ### 1/5 — Don’t buy. *2023-08-31, version 2.2.3* Complete waste of money, 25 dollars a month per lake!?! For awful common knowledge. Total scam. ### 1/5 — Save your money *2023-02-17, version 2.2.3* I had high expectations for this app. Was going to a lake I’ve never fished and was looking for a few tips. But instead I got something that any bass fisherman could have given me just by looking at a general map. Generic information not worth the money. ### 1/5 — Don’t bite the bait *2021-09-09, version 2.2.3* Don’t download unless you got your wallet ready. How can something sell if it hasn’t been proven? At least let the fishermen see if the spots are legit or not before charging. Fishermen would like to know if a spot to fish is good in the first place without having to pay a fee. ### 1/5 — Bad *2021-02-19, version 2.2.3* It won’t let me make a password. I wish i could say if it was good or not but I can’t even use the app. ### 1/5 — Great concept, poor follow through *2021-01-31, version 2.2.3* Ordered a lake subscription and it was choppy using. It. Whenever I clicked on the subscription I would get asked to sign up again. Figured my way through that hiccup and signed up for 2 more subscriptions. Now my lake o the pines subscription opens to lake texoma when I click on it. No way to contact the administrator through the app, finally found a website and sent them an email advising the subscription was unusable and nothing. No response, nothing. 4 days later and when I open the app, still the same problem. I canceled all of my subscriptions and will be calling my credit card company. ### 1/5 — Could be good *2020-03-08, version 2.1.2* Very generic info for the price. If you’re going to charge 26$ a month it needs to include weigh points, info on when the spots where created, water temperature at the time, weather conditions. Etc. every spot has the same thing. Carolina rig and jerk bait. ### 1/5 — $26 per month ‘auto-renewing’ *2020-01-22, version 2.1.2* I downloaded the app thinking that I’d check it out. Clicked on Sam Rayburn and then they showed the price! LOL, no way that I’d pay $26 per month for this. Nice concept, but priced over 500% what it would be worth. ### 1/5 — No *2019-08-13, version 1.0* Doesn’t let me do a username ### 1/5 — Not enough information *2019-04-08, version 1.0* It would be good to identify the type of fish to be caught at the referenced wave point. I am not sure if the map references bass or crappie. It simply does not say. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Jump starter *2021-02-05, version 2.2.3* I am a weekend fisher and love the information provided. I have used it twice on Lake Fork. First time weather sucked and we didn’t want to bounce around the lake so we picked a spot and the electronics told us we were going to have poor luck. Second try better weather for end of January fishing and the app helped us to establish a pattern that we were able to duplicate and caught nice sized fish. Looking forward to using this more in the future but due to cost might scale back to the community package. ### 5/5 — Awesome app!! *2020-06-15, version 2.2.3* Decided to try this app since I didn’t know the lake well. Glad I did. First marked hole I pulled up to my partner caught an 8 on his first cast and I caught a 7 on my first cast. On our second casts we caught a 4 and a 5. We caught more fish out of the same hole. It was nice to go to a lake you don’t know and not feel lost. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2019-10-01, version 1.0* Really good, yes it is pricey “at least for the lake fork info “but some likes that only have 5-15 spots are $6.99 (5 spots and 15 is like 20 bucks, the spots really are great ### 5/5 — Worth The Money *2019-04-22, version 1.0* I came out to Lake Fork and downloaded the app. Within an hour I had a 4 pound bass in the boat. I caught nice bass on all of the spots on the app that I fished. If you’re on the fence about getting the app it’s well worth the money. Don’t waste your time driving around the lake not catching bass. Get the app. ### 5/5 — Haven’t tried yet but billy is the real deal *2019-03-24, version 1.0* Buy it !!! ### 5/5 — Very helpful tool! *2019-02-11, version 1.0* I have already started charting my trips with the map feature! I cant wait to look back on the data in a year. Also, there is a lot of detail on the contour lines and you can select the depth ranges. My favorite part is the creek list. I have heard people mention different areas of the lake, but now I can search them and see where they are. ### 4/5 — Problems with IOS *2020-07-16, version 2.2.3* Constantly has problems where you can’t view the lake you have purchased, support/help is almost nonexistent. ### 3/5 — Update *2020-05-22, version 2.2.3* It’s supposed too be weekly updates?? It’s been a month or longer for pines.. love everything about it accept not updating.. Just got charged again and still no updates.. Spawn is over! ### 3/5 — Got a good concept *2019-03-11, version 1.0* Got a good thing going, great idea to share useful techniques and information with anglers who may not know the areas. Maybe a little more detail, up to date weather reports and future outlooks would help great in my opinion. Also $25/m per lake is going to turn a lot of people away from this app, I know several already myself. If users give feedback and it is well received this could in my opinion be one of the best ideas for fishing new bodies of water. ### 2/5 — Nothin new *2024-07-21, version 2.2.3* Read the reviews from 4 yrs ago and not much has changed. Don’t need an app to find these spots and it’s mid July and all the spots are ready that on the bank.
