thatRiver: River Conditions

thatRiver shows what a river is doing right now, in words you can act on. Pick Fish or Float. Every river the Go Fish That River and Go Float That River sites cover gets the same rating the sites give: the live reading, how it compares with the river's normal range, and a plain-language verdict for today. Not a number you have to interpret, a sentence you can read in the parking lot. ONE SCREEN PER RIVER • The live gauge reading and the rating, refreshed every 15 minutes • Seven days of history and the forecast, with the best day marked • Weather, alerts, access points and tackle notes • Community intel from people who were there THE BOARD • Today: every river in your state on one Go / No-Go board, per mode • Rivers: sorted by condition or distance, with filters, score and best day • The map: national dots, state gauges and community pins, with 3D terrain READ THE WATER Leave a report for the next person: what you saw, an access point, a pin, a photo. Reports are anonymous unless you add your name, and they're moderated. An outbox sends them when you're back in range. WORKS WITHOUT A SIGNAL Everything you've looked at is kept on the phone and stamped with when it was fetched, so river pages, the board and the map open with no service. Download map areas before you go. Ratings describe the water, not your decision. Conditions change quickly; the reading is one input, and judgment on the bank is the rest. Free, with no account.
