Ratings and reviews

Might be useful out in the salt, but not for anything inland. No emergency orders Regulations are just .PDFs, but made more difficult to read. Just download them. No weather for inland. Accumulative fish counts are gibberish in the table view, and 2024 doesn't even show up in accumulative graph view. The only useful bits are the daily counts which, while a few days old, match what is available on the fish and game website. Devs, you should pivot and just make this a marine app.

This app is absolutely awesome. Couldn't be happier. The depth chart features are really cool, I'm really looking forward to trying the public fishing spots for halibut, and the fish count feature is excellent. The other great thing was the marine weather forecast along with tides and currents. This app really is all you need for fishing in Alaska. Everything you could possibly need all in one spot. Nice job!

App developers are slow to update app data. Purchased to avoid needing to call for fish counts, but app was regularly 2-3 days behind on current data (even though ADFG website data was up-to-date). The app could be great, but all the bells and whistles won't matter when the data is lagging. Had better results just going directly to the ADFG website.
