### 5/5 — Great App

*2013-10-19, version 2.1*

Easy to use and accurate and informative

### 5/5 — Pa fishing app

*2013-09-09, version 2.1*

Great app for someone who loves fishing and is always up for finding new places to fish. It has everything such as listings by species, boat launches, the amount of horse power you can use in certain places, and all of the lakes and streams in pa with the type of species that can be found in that body of water. I strongly recommend this app to any one who goes fishing or just someone who is looking for places to use their boat at that's tired of going to the same place all the time because they don't know any other places to go.

### 5/5 — Find New Water

*2013-05-03, version 2.0*

A great way to find and approach new places to fish. While the access list and search are really cool, it's the built in hydrological map that can really help you find great water. Worth the price!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2013-05-01, version 2.0*

Well worth the money, took me right to a stream that I had never been to, great work.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2013-03-15, version 2.0*

Great app for fishing in Pennsylvania.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2013-02-12, version 1.0*

I was hesitant to purchase this app but so glad I did! If you are looking for directions to all those great rivers and like to hop from place to place looking for rising trout this is a great time saver. I'm happy to have this tool to aid me on my fly fishing adventures!

### 4/5 — Nice App

*2012-04-06, version 1.0*

I too travel through PA for work and occasionally have some free time to fish. I purchased this app to find trout streams in unfamiliar areas of the state. The app is easy to use and loaded with information on locations for trout and bass fishing. The Special Regs sections are great for fly fishermen. I would recommend this app for those fishermen who travel in PA.

### 5/5 — Good search app for trout fishing

*2012-03-31, version 1.0*

This app is great for searching for nearby trout streams. I would like to see the ability to drop my own pins on the map to tag my own information in a future update.

### 5/5 — fish

*2012-03-31, version 1.0*

love it

### 5/5 — Great app for trout!

*2012-03-12, version 1.0*

I'm a businessman who travels all across PA.  In my spare time, I try to find smaller trout streams wherever I am.  Since I picked up the app last month, I've had nothing but success.  One February day I was free for the entire day and was able to fish 9 different Class A streams.  This was unthinkable before I bought this app.  Near Altoona, I had an hour to spare and found two different Class A streams loaded with wild brown trout.  I later talked to members of the TU chapter there and they could not believe I had found their "Secret Streams"  They say you get what you pay for and this app lives up to that claim.  I definitely recommend this app!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2021-03-20, version 2.70*

Until they updated with the Covid restrictions. Now this app is practically useless. You can’t even get directions to ANY stream as of today. Why? Covid cases are at the lowest point since the beginning of the pandemic. Please return this app back to normal.

### 1/5 — I want my money back app doesn’t work 99% of the time

*2020-10-19, version 2.70*

Such a good app! But it NEVER WORKS huge waist of money!! Do NOT buy this app until they fix the bugs

### 1/5 — Not impressed

*2014-05-28, version 2.2*

For the money I expected more. Maybe fishing reports. Hot spots. Something. Don't waste your money, needs more development.

### 2/5 — Out of date

*2023-04-04*

Used to find this app very useful. Not anymore. All the information about stocking and regulations is from 2021 (or so it says in the apps disclaimer). So, you can maybe use this app to get some ideas for locations, but you need to do further research to confirm the regulations before jumping in your vehicle and heading out there.

### 2/5 — Not the best

*2017-03-04, version 2.40*

I thought this app was going to be the best fishing app ever based on its reviews and its price. It's a waste of money, the map shows everything I can pull from the internet, it's great that it includes the regulations that may apply to the body of water but doesn't include any good fish description. Don't waste your money.

### 2/5 — Mr

*2013-05-10, version 2.0*

Ok, find it hard to read the map. Would be nice if it had a pull down menu for the different regulated streams. Instruction could be better with more interaction with the APP.

### 4/5 — Very useful

*2022-04-05, version 2.70*

I use this app every time I am looking up a spot. It includes GPS coordinates to parking access, species type, regulations, and more. It is super convenient! The lower reviews given on this app are very irrational. The 10 dollars that you spend gives you a wealth of information and it’s only a one time fee. I recommend this app to anyone looking for new spots. One thing that could be added to the app are native trout streams (blue line streams), however I know this could have negative effects due to maintaining the protection of wild trout, but in my opinion, only most serious fisherman will buy this app.

### 4/5 — Very helpful, if not perfect.

*2017-04-02, version 2.41*

Just got back from a first trip to a new spot, thanks to this app. Bagged a couple of rainbows and had a great afternoon to myself, in a spot I never knew existed. Saves a lot of scouting time for sure. The ability to post reviews of each location would be my only possible request. Thank you for making this available!

### 4/5 — GPS Fishing Guide

*2016-02-20, version 2.30*

Well, I just purchased this app. I have not actually used it yet. However, it looks pretty darn good. I have another app that does just about the same thing but it is not as user friendly and its content looks cumbersome on the page. I don’t usually buy apps that are over $5 but I took a chance here. But looks very promising. Heading out today to try it in southeast Pa.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2013-08-09, version 2.1*

Lots of info in one place. The ability to leave a comment about a spot would be nice

### 5/5 — Perfect app for trout fishing

*2020-12-18, version 2.70*

This app is a god send. I’ve spent countless hours researching and shuffling through different maps to find spots for so long. This makes life so much easier. Helps me to explore a lot more water in a lot less time. Super happy about this purchase.

### 5/5 — A Must Have App

*2018-04-23, version 2.48*

Definitely a must have if you want to explore more fishing spots in your area. GPS right to the stream via the app. Also allows you to save waypoints and such. Very helpful for giving info on the stream location. Such as type of fish, water flow, etc....  Give it a try!

### 5/5 — Save your day

*2017-05-12, version 2.41*

This app helps when you show up somewhere and it's packed blown out etc etc

### 5/5 — Great app for new fly fisherman

*2016-06-05, version 2.40*

I'm new to fly fishing PA streams. This app has given me a way to learn about and find "new to me" waters. Well worth the investment.

### 5/5 — Great Fishing Guide

*2016-04-16, version 2.40*

Excellent guide for PA when locating new streams in my area or traveling to a new area of PA. 

Highly recommenddd

### 5/5 — Finally a fishing app worth owning

*2016-03-08, version 2.40*

I've tried a pile of free fishing apps and uninstalled every one of them. I ran across this one at a Outdoor Sportsman Show and was reluctant because I'm used to apps being free and I'm cheap. 

I'm super impressed with the app, it showed me a fishing pull-off I've driven by hundreds of times and never knew it was there.  I love that you can see info specific to each body of water. It tells me what type of fish are in there and the regs specific to that water including min size and daily limit.

### 5/5 — Great App..Great Developer

*2015-10-01, version 2.22*

This app is fantastic.  Build a trip itinerary, dream about visiting someplace new, get a quick side trip in while you're traveling or find an unknown gem close to home.  This app does it all and when I contacted the developer about some issues with the app he had them addressed very quickly!

### 5/5 — Excellent, useful app. The best.

*2015-08-26, version 2.2*

New to the PA area, and bought the app to help locate fishing spots. Spent the day yesterday scouting sites using the app. All of the information and directions were spot on. A real time saver. Wasted many hours searching the net for information that this app puts right at your fingertips. Glad I found it. Best fishing related app I own.
Also, the customer service is outstanding. Prompt accurate replies to questions. Very helpful and timely assistance.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-04-18, version 2.2*

Always able to find the stream I'm looking for. Never a problem and always accurate. Great customer service if you ever have a question!

### 5/5 — Great App! Awsome Resource. Can't wait for update

*2014-01-30, version 2.2*

Would like to see more details for each location. Will be uploading new spots soon
