FishDonkey Reviews

I love FishDonkey! It’s so simple and easy to use and there are so many different tournaments you can get involved in, many at super low cost or even free! Even semi-pro tournaments are much easier and better for the fish with using FishDonkey. Best part is, there’s always a real person you can talk to if you have issues. Thanks Darren at this app!

The this app app is easy to use, it works well even in areas without cell service (just remember to upload your pictures from your Digital Livewell when you get back in an area with service or WiFi). I’ve used this for a bunch of virtual fishing tournaments and really like it.

The this app fish 🐟 tournament app is super easy to use. I signed up for a couple fish tournaments 🎣 that are for free; no registration fee. Even found a national tournament that allows me to compete from anywhere in the country 🇺🇸
Looks like it is also easy to set up your own tournament on it.
Thanks to whomever created it

Without a boat, it can be a challenge to find tournaments to be a coangler. Their app allows me to find and fish tournaments competitively against people across the country at waters near me. ITS A BLAST!!

I have heard from contacts that people are unhappy about the fees with FishDonkey. In general fishing tournament organizers would like to go back to the old ways of doing things. I do think FishDonkey is helpful for having all the tournaments in one place. My main problem however is the lack of boat education about AIS and how to stop the spread. There is great potential for spreading this important information.

this app is easy to use and makes fishing a lot more fun. Perhaps the best thing about this app is that catch & release is so good for the fish! this app is the only way to go!!!

Used in our fishing league this summer. It was a great option made the league that much more fun.

If you aren’t the one who paid for the tournament and you are on the team, you can’t check results, leaderboards, or anything else. It’s a great idea but unless you pay the money, your teammate has to bug the other team member to give him updates etc..

Easy way to put on a fishing tournament! Do small private or large nationwide fishing tournaments. Way easier on fish populations, no live welling, culling, or weigh ins that can be lethal to trophy fish! Love FishDonkey

Has a great set up for creating fishing tournaments compared to similar apps.

Nothing but problems, and nothing works correctly and you have to have it approved by the creators. They only give you 6 tournaments and then it makes you pay for them

Very easy to use and is making tournament fishing great again!

FishDonkey is a great way to host catch and release tournaments! It’s easy to use and much better on the fish.

Great app to run a tournament and to enter fish! Simple, fast, works which no phone service. Great for all tournaments!

Not that great, bogs down. The structure is good, but doesn’t update leaderboard during tournaments. Slow to update.

I tried setting up a tournament, but FishDonkey won’t move past divisions. It states “One or more element required”. I input the information but it will not allow me to move to the next step. Bummer because it sounded like a cool app.

Great app, easy to use! Absolutely a game changer in tournament fishing.

We had a virtual tournament on Saturday and FishDonkey did not work for any of our 12 fisherman. Don’t waste your time. It’s a good thing that we did not make this a paid tournament. Very disappointed!!!

FishDonkey is perfect for a quarantine tournament! Staying six feet apart is easy when you don’t have to even be on the same lake as the other anglers in the tournament. It’s designed very well and allows you to completely customize your own tournament. We’re all having a great time competing!

Also, Darren at this app is awesome! It took less than 12 hours for him to get back to me. He took time to message me and explain everything. He also answered a ton of questions for me and got my tournament working perfectly. Big thank you to Darren and everyone else at this app. Great job on creating such an amazing app!

Just used app for Jaycees fishing contest.
Server crashed and digital live well will not allow you to enter your fish.
They admit to server issues
They will not work with you to accept alternative entry
They will not refund your $

Do not fall for same scam I did...

I love it. I joined a tournament. Checked with the developer and they don’t share your fishing spots and it even works without Internet. I plan to use this to make my own tournament as a fundraiser soon.
