In this high-tech world we live in, almost everything now is completely mobile based and users depend heavily on their phones, even avid outdoorsmen. If you’re planning on visiting us and going fishing at Burntwood Lodge, you will most likely take your phone along with you on the boat. You’ll want to have it to prove the size of your fish to your buddies, but also because technology can help us find and catch fish easier. As bizarre as it may sound, fishing apps have become a staple for some of the more successful modern-day anglers.
Here are two fishing-related mobile apps that will help you reel in big, the next time you venture out to go fishing:
Fishidy
This app allows anglers to record catches and data about their trip, share them with friends and link them to real-time locations. The Fishidy app also allows fishermen access to pro-tips and the ability to upload photos of their fish to the online “bragging board.” The entire network is map-based allowing anglers the ability to easily discover patterns and trends from their results. Want to know how you did on the lake last May? Just check the app. At the very basic level, this app is a user-friendly map-based fishing log and is free for both IOS and Android users. If Facebook is for your past and Twitter is for your future, Fishidy is for your fishing.
Pro Angler
This app contains a wealth of information on over 100 species of saltwater fish. You have access to pro-tips from guides in your location, weekly updates on what’s biting, a GPS based boat guide to help you navigate to the hot spots, weather updates, locations of bait and tackle shops and more. If you caught a fish and wish to eat it for dinner, this app even has recipes from top chefs on how to cook your catch. Pro Angler is a one-stop shop for die-hard anglers. The app is free on IOS and Android users.
