Fishdope Fishing App

It’s an excellent compilation of all the report data. The app excels is offshore fishing,But is also great for any trip to anyone of our islands. Even if fuel was not almost 7 dollars a gallon, The time you save by getting to where the bluefin were 10 or 12 hours ago just cannot be beat for the yearly fee. When they have the plane spotting service, once a week I believe, you are truly set up for success. It can also save you a trip when it’s not worth going out, that alone is priceless. If a full tank is $500, the price of the subscription is peanuts.

I like the app. A lot. I like that it integrates well with the FishDope membership and daily updated information. Best part is the chart displaying your real-time location in relation to the information(tempbreaks, chloroform, hot bites etc) Thank you for an awesome app to help me plan and implement my time on the water efficiently and effectively!

The new version of this app is much improved over the old. The fish reports added to the app along with VHF radio is a huge improvement. The charts are way better than they used to be and have all the tools that used to be just for the web version. I love the addition of the wind forecast. If you have a boat and fish in LA/San Diego/ upper Baja area this is a must have tool. They fly an airplane and find schools of fish no one knows about then reports them to the app!

Downloaded the app but immediately asks for login. No offline data available.

Unable to display the text reports for individual zones. No summary even as an option. Pretty limp app. The web based reports are better although the info can often be uninformed or incorrect.

I'm on my 1st year membership with FishDope and the website and this app provide good info on pelagic species like tuna or yellowtail. However reports on species such as island based white sea bass, barracuda, or even island based yellows is very limited and sporadic. As an example, hot bite reports for the Channel Islands are basically blank daily. And reports consolidating info such as party boat catches from local landings are not provided. Also, charts show where fish were caught, but comments associated to the "fish icons" reflect what type, but do not reflect the details on numbers and spots reported in daily reports found in the web. Full details in the charts app would not be required, but some detail would be useful such as "Jul 3rd - 3 yellowfin at the 43"; "large schools sighted at 209". The bottom line is, highly recommend FishDope..... if you fish pelagic species in US waters near Mexico or Mexican waters.

I really like the ability to cache images, take them with me on the water and use my phones GPS to view location on images.
