Cmon son

I DID NOT PAY FOR THIS APP JUST TO HAVE CHILDISH NONSENSE FLOOD A PLATFORM THAT SHOULD BE BUILT FOR SERIOUS ANGLERS. This is supposed to be a place for people who share a passion for fishing—not a playground for kids to mess around on.

I’m clearly not the only angler who feels this way, and the frustration is justified. If this is the experience we’re paying for, then the app should’ve been FREE from the start.

Paying users deserve quality, accountability, and an experience that respects the fishing community. We’re here to fish, learn, share knowledge, and connect with other anglers—not pay for something that fails to deliver what it promises.

LISTEN TO YOUR USERS. RESPECT YOUR ANGLERS. FIX THE PROBLEM. Because without the people who support this app, there is no community and no business.

Amazing app

Can share all my catches and get info on new spots to improve my fishing.

Positive results—period.

Look, the very limited, but free content has no doubt led me to more catches. I REALLY gotta dust the wallet off an’ take advantage of the sales they offer. What I know from steady use of the app, minimum access-free, the amount of intel/info I can unlock would throttle this learning curve and certainly produce more results. 100%
