pretty much useless unless you pay a sub. I tried the free version to see if it would be worth the app purchase, it was not. This is essentially "Fish Instagram" which you can't really access unless you pay, there is no specific data on spots, fish types, bite tines, bait, etc perhaps those things are available if you pay, but the free bait was not enticing enough to make me bite.

Thank you for your Feedback. We're sorry to hear that the free version of the app didn’t meet your expectations. Some of our features are extra complex and require more resources to maintain which therefore has to be a part of the Fishbrain Pro package, which is necessary for us to be able to provide value for anglers – both today and tomorrow.

Went to the Smokey Mtns thinking I'd be able to use this app...nope didn't work; only works in places where your near signal towers. Not much use for the fisherman who goes exploring to new places. There's no option to download maps and data to use during signal loss. I wasted time trying to let it load only no success. Good thing I only paid for the month. Thought I'd be using this long term and join a community. I'll change my review to 5 stars if they make this app available offline.

I can't upload my catches, but can do everything else. I contacted support, and they were of little help- communication was not good, I thought that I was ghosted at one point. We'll see if the problem persists. If so, I'll move onto a different fishing app. Update: the problem has been corrected. The silver lining is that the issue forced me to explore other fishing apps, which I now also use.
