Read full description

Find your next fishing spot. Arrive prepared. Trophy Water brings fishing maps, saved spots, weather and trip planning together, helping you decide where to go and what to bring. Keep your fishing history in a private journal and useful tools close at hand. PLAN YOUR NEXT TRIP Build a plan for familiar waters or somewhere new. Check near-term weather forecasts and wind, review packing suggestions based on conditions and your target species, and keep your trip checklist organized. Explore sunrise, sunset, moon phase and solunar timing to help plan your day. EXPLORE AND SAVE YOUR SPOTS Explore inland depth maps for supported waters and NOAA nautical chart coverage. Find boat ramps and water-access points, view protected and managed land information, and save favorite locations with notes for your next visit. Share a location from Apple Maps into Trophy Water, or preview an area with Apple Look Around where imagery is available. CHECK THE WATER BEFORE YOU GO Review recent USGS river-flow measurements, gage heights and hydrographs. Check NOAA tide predictions at supported stations to help prepare for coastal and tidal fishing. FIND STOCKED WATERS Explore trout stocking information in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New York and Pennsylvania. Records may describe planned or completed stocking; dates and coverage vary by source. KEEP USEFUL TOOLS IN YOUR TACKLE BOX Use the camera-based Ruler for an approximate fish length and the Weight Calculator for weight estimates. Access an adaptive Flashlight, Red Lantern and barometer from one place. Measurements and weights are estimates, not substitutes for a ruler or scale. Hardware-dependent tools require a supported device. REMEMBER WHAT WORKED Record catches, photos, notes and measurements in your private fishing journal. Keep a history of your time on the water, revisit productive spots, and browse species information and fishing guides as you prepare for your next trip. TRY THE FULL APP FOR SEVEN DAYS Explore Trophy Water free for seven days. After the trial, a one-time Lifetime Access purchase is required to continue using the app. No recurring subscription and no automatic charge when the trial ends. COVERAGE AND ACCESS Specialized fishing data is focused on the United States. Coverage varies by state, waterbody, provider and location. Not every water has depth or stocking data. Weather, station data and Look Around depend on service and location availability. PAD-US shows protected and managed land, not comprehensive private-property boundaries. Confirm current access rules and permission before visiting. Maps, depths, forecasts and timing information are planning references, not navigation or safety guarantees.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NESN 360 at none against Trophy Water's 1. NESN 360 also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Trophy Water's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks). On price there is nothing between them.
