Hey Everyone,

Tried to search but couldn't find anything specific due to the word "iphone" appearing after every Taptalk post, so here goes.

Post up your favourite Apps that you use for fishing and what you find good about the App so I can download them all!

Currently I am using....

Weatherzone+ ($1.99 from memory but has got a free version also with limited features)

Great for predicting the weather. Has tides, moon cycles, BOM Pressure and weather predictions. Also has state warnings which is useful for checking when planning to head offshore.

GoodReader (about 5 bucks but well worth it!)

Save PDF Files to your iPhone, great for saving the Saltwater Fishing Guidelines & I also have the Tide Tables PDF from waterways saved so I can predict tide times for upcoming fishing sessions!

yes it is water depth I use it all the time as a chart plotter. Even used it to navigate out to browns and nearly to heatons hill even when phone has no reception it still works. Also use a program called fishing cal it uses the sun and moon cycles and tells you how productive fishing should be. It is fairly reliable good as a guide. 79d1ae87-91e7-7501.jpg79d1ae87-91ff-2583.jpg79d1ae87-920e-f97b.jpg

Flick Fishing is good because it really does test your patience. Not sure about skills but definately patience.

Good when you got the fishing bug and no fish/bites around

Oh those fishing apps... :biggrin2:

Watch the navionics one as it will drain your battery very quickly. Make sure your phone is fully charged before going out fishing :wacko:

I just made a post with links to various sites that give us information - they are the ones across the top of this forum.

If you are using tapatalk

1. open tapatalk

2. open fishraider

3. go to search and type in MOBILE FISHING LINKS

4. save that search and you can go straight to that list of links

5. subscribe to that topic and it will be in your favourites list

Best I can do until some up and coming app developer contacts me to work on a fishraider app :biggrin2:- C'MON seriously make a name for yourself :1yikes:

+1 for Navionics. If your speedo is inaccurate then GPS Speed has a great accurate presentation of knots, although Navionics also displays speed. For a portable knot reference I found FishingKnots app to have really good animation.

Flick fishing is really boring compared to real fishing... Very addictive unlike flick fishing much more realistic then other fishing games and a lot more fish species and it's possible to get spooled

I'm taking a guess here, but its most likely due to the constant usage of the GPS.

I don't know about the other phones out there, but mine doesn't last all day with the GPS constantly in use, so charging to full won't help.
