Cabelas has a Fish Recon app.....I just put the Free one on my phone but I can mark waypoints. I have marked some in the area I fish to be able to get back to the ramp if the fog moves in as a backup in case my electronics are having a problem. I am not recommending it and I wouldn't buy the extra part of it but nothing is wrong with free. Go to the cabelas site and type it in search and it should come up. Hope that helps.......Les

 

I use the Navionics app for my iPhone 4s, I could not be happier! The app I think was $10. Just download the map for your area and your good to go! It shows the depth range and so many other things! You can mark way points as well...

 

I use both the Navionics app and MotionX GPS Drive.

Each is different. Navionics is a pretty straightforward GPS app; MotionX has the added ability to give you driving directions. Both are good IMO.

For just saving favorite fishing spots I think Navionics would be a good choice.

 

Just about any GPS App.
Or if you are in a place you cannot get reception - just a plain old GPS

 

Another vote for navionics. I use it constantly, you can download the maps so even if you don't have cell service it still works. Little spendy for an app, but it works great and super easy to use.

 

Another vote for Navionics. Awesome app well worth the 10 bucks. Used it a ton trolling this year.

If I'm not mistaken you can just drop "pins" with the pre-loaded
"Maps" app that comes with the iphone and ipad. Free and should be just as accurate as any other GPS.

 

:yeahthat:with the new iOS tap your blue dot location, hit the > and log in your location as an address. Just remember to share you good locations with all of us...

New iOS maps is slick.

 

Just remember to share you good locations with all of us...

I prefer you all actually get fish, rather than boat rides !
Just not my year... 2012 assout:

 

Hey thanks !!

Much appreciated !!

Will give it a whirl !

 

O.k. since I am spending the small amount of $$ on this I thought others looking for the same thing may want to view a video of this product.

It is exactly the ticket for what I need.

 

You will not be disappointed! One piece o advice, if you use the track feature, make sure to stop your track when you are done for the day, I have ended up with some pretty hilarious tracks lol

 

Take a look at the Cabela's Recon Fish App. It is amazing.

 

I use the earth nc app similar to navionics. Shows charts for cr and ocean create routes drop pins. 3rd option to get home on if electronics fail.

 

Navionics and MotionX here.

 

I'm interested in using my Ipad with the Navionics app as a plotter and general reference for the CR as well as Merwin, Yale and Swift. My Ipad is not 3G ( it's Wifi ) so i understand that i won't be able to use it as a plotter without a Wifi signal. My idea was to use one of my cell phones as a Wifi hot spot so i could use the Ipad as a plotter with the Navionics app. anyone have any advice about this idea?

Oh yeah one other thing i noticed was the Navionics app for Iphone was $9.99 but if you want it for Ipad it's $49.99!!! What is the difference in price all about?

I never noticed the difference in price before. That doesn't make sense to me. Maybe someone with experience can chime in on this one. Why the extra 40 bucks?

Navionics here. Worth the ten spot

 

Any input on the "flytomap" app?

 

I have been really happy with iFish USA - covers alot in one tool.

I tried the Cabelas app and found it really tough to navigate down to get a lake map, seems it would work better for other activities rather than fishing

 

I know this is a little late, but wanted to list it here with the rest of the apps. Our CatchTracker by FishingNotes.com app specifically is built to make this easy. We also help with lure selection and tips on spot to try based on the weather and location.

Please let me know if you have other ideas that would make our app better or these types of apps in general.
