RipCharts vs Rigline Offshore

Welcome to RipCharts, an industry leader in satellite fishing maps. This app is free to download for existing RipCharts Premium subscribers. If you are new to RipCharts, then we allow you to purchase a new RipCharts subscription via an In App Purchase. Please contact us if you have questions or would like a complementary demo The RipCharts mobile app is a powerful tool that enables offshore fishermen to evaluate recent satellite imagery in order to determine favorable fishing conditions. Search for, view, and download maps of near realtime satellite imagery onto your device to take with you offshore. View the latest imagery datasets: Raw SST orbit scans Composite SST (1day, 3day) Multi-Res/Cloud Free SST Sub-Surface SST. 0m, -25m, -50m, -100m 5 day SST forecast models Chlorophyll Chlorophyll/Cloud mashups Chlorophyll composites True Color Altimetry Currents Salinity Bathymetry Map Features: Use the multi touch map to zoom, pan, view waypoints, and overlay additional data layers to gain insight into where the most favorable fishing zones are located. Mapping Tools: Measure distances and headings between points Dynamically customize temp/color ranges on SST maps to identify subtle breaks - powerful feature! Overlay bathymetry, altimetry, currents, and Loran layers Tap the map to receive point information (lat, lon, depth, SST) Popular waypoints and fishing hotspots come pre-loaded Manage your personal waypoints (add, edit, delete) Save imagery to your device for offline/offshore use Show your position and navigate on saved imagery using GPS satellites "Go Here" navigation with bearing, ETA, and speed displays Floater oil rig positions updated twice daily (Gulf of Mexico only)

Rigline reads the water so you spend less time searching and more time fishing. It turns satellite and ocean-model data into ranked hotspots, weedline forecasts and bite windows for offshore and inshore water, refreshed through the day. Offshore hotspots • Up to 30 ranked hotspots in each of 25 regions: the East Coast from Maine to Florida, the Gulf, the Pacific coast, Hawaii and Mexico • Every score explained, with the top three drivers today, a trend and how many runs in a row a spot has held • Coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, copied with one tap • Species modes for mahi, wahoo, yellowfin and bluefin tuna, albacore, blue, white and striped marlin, sailfish and daytime swordfish, plus ahi and ono in Hawaii • Focus on canyons and the shelf edge, the Gulf Stream, or plumes and dirty water Ocean charts • Water temp, temp anomaly, sea height, currents, depth, upwelling, salinity and mixed layer depth on one map • Animated currents, scored zones, and warm and cold eddies with the Loop Current front • Long-press anywhere for coordinates, then save the spot Weedlines • Likely weedlines where sargassum and current convergence overlap • Forecasts out to 48 hours on a slider that follows your clock • A confidence score on every forecast step Temp breaks • Sea surface temperature breaks you can save to your phone before you lose signal offshore Inshore • Inshore hotspots for Tampa Bay, Chesapeake Bay, Delaware Bay, New York Harbor, Long Island Sound, the St. Johns River, Galveston Bay and San Francisco Bay, plus North Carolina in beta • Only species that are in season: redfish, snook, speckled trout, flounder, tarpon, striped bass, cobia and more • Tide-aware spots with the best bite window, a tactic and likely bait for each • Bite forecast with a daily score, a 7-day outlook and feeding windows by the hour Intel • Posts, photos, comments and direct messages from anglers who fish your water • Community spots: share wrecks, reefs and rigs, and confirm the ones you have fished • Hundreds of charted wrecks and reefs, with weather, seas, swell and water temp for each Layers and forecasts show when their data was last updated, so you always know how fresh it is. Rigline is free. Forecasts are model estimates, not guarantees. Always check official marine forecasts and advisories before you head out.
