### 5/5 — All lobster fisherman use this

I’m a lobster fisherman from Maine and everybody all up and down the coast uses this app. And we use it a lot. It’s almost always spot on for when the wind is going to blow. So from all us fisherman that use this app in Maine for lobster fishing, thank you! We love this app!

### 5/5 — UBFishing

*2026-05-18, version 7.0*

Love the app all the time to check wind and wave height

### 5/5 — Always Consult

*2026-05-05, version 7.0*

FishWeather is an integral part of our pre-trip routine.

### 5/5 — Commute for work in ferry

*2026-04-21, version 6.38*

I check it daily between commuting for work on a ferry and my kids dad is a commercial fisherman. We use fishweather to plan our lives.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-15, version 6.38*

Love it its accurate

### 5/5 — RV Captain

*2026-01-28, version 6.38*

Awesome app

### 2/5 — Still see constant ads at $179.99 per year level

*2026-01-16, version 6.38*

There is a lot of good information in this app, but the constant ads make it difficult to use. Even after upgrading to the top level (USD 179.99/year) and switching to "Show fewer ads" the ads are constantly refreshing, flashing, and stealing bandwidth. Also some of the ads turn my stomach when I see them, gross topics or known malware sites.

### 5/5 — Good Stuff

*2025-12-31, version 6.36*

Works well

### 5/5 — Give It A Try, Nothing To Lose

*2025-12-18, version 6.36*

Not a bad App, relatively decent information given on various topics. Marine forecasts are coming from NWS in Wakefield, so it’s the best your going to get for our regional marine weather forecast.

### 1/5 — Reported station outage

*2026-08-09, version 7.09*

Did not fix problem of delayed or station going out over 2-3 weeks of
Emails

### 1/5 — Great until they made you pay

*2026-06-11, version 7.05*

Loved the app until they made most of the weather station premium only. Can’t even check the offshore report now. It was always free and not anymore

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-03-16, version 6.38*

I used to like this app. All of a sudden it changed and is now worthless. Ty

### 1/5 — Neither warm or cold

*2025-11-17, version 6.33*

Without temperature it is really useless. Good for wind, but not much else.

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2025-08-09, version 6.27*

Fishweather has been so innacurate lately   I am prob cancelling it    It’s shown this whole week s rain   Yet its been the clearest most perfect weather yet  junk app

### 1/5 — sign up and paid for plus, can’t get any benefits

*2025-08-07, version 6.27*

not worth the money

### 1/5 — Pop up ad

*2025-07-21, version 6.26*

This new pop up, when you click and visit the ad it comes right back across the middle of the map. If this doesn’t go away you can keep your ap and I’ll use a different map

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2025-07-06, version 6.25*

Worthless

### 1/5 — Poor Forecasts!!

*2025-04-26, version 6.23*

This app has failed me multiple times when I suspect a day of calm water, but then turns out into almost in disaster. Long wasted trips due to piss poor forecasting. This app legit is trash.

### 1/5 — Forcast option

*2024-11-25, version 6.17*

Having trouble using the forecast feature seems to be a problem

### 5/5 — Accurate more times than not

*2026-08-13, version 7.10*

We all know forecasts aren’t right 100% of the time, but when it comes to being consistent, this app is the best. Compared to Windfinder, Windy, etc; this has been the most accurate we’ve seen once the weather arrives.
