Fishing Points Reviews

I just bought FishingPoints, unfortunately. It seems 2/3rds of the lakes in the Hayward area are not available. Including four of my five I wanted to visit.

And it isn’t just the lake depths aren’t mapped out, the actually LAKES don’t appear on the map! The apple road map that comes with my phone is more useful.

And furthermore, large lakes (hundreds of acres) are no where to be found, but little beaver ponds are mapped out? Who is deciding which lakes deserve the recognition?

Save your money, and buy a map book from a local bait shop. That is what I am about to do.

I intended to use FishingPoints for fishing, especially ice fishing. I bought the US and Canada package for $25 because I really wanted Lake of the Woods to be a good map for me.

The map for Lake of the Woods is a joke. It lacks detail and is worthless when zoomed in on. Lake of the Woods is a huge lake and very important for most Midwest and Canadian fishermen. If you think you will ever go to LOW, DO NOT BUY FishingPoints unless they get a better map of LOW.

I contacted developer and they sent me some instructions on how to use FishingPoints , as if that was the problem. The instructions were poorly written and the customer service was poor.

I have an ice fishing friend who bought the Navionics (spelling?) boating App for less and is much happier. I will do the same and call this a waste of $25. Congrats on screwing me out of $25!!

Map of my two lakes that I fish do not show the main river channels or any of the side feeder streams cutting into the MRC. Those are critical for a fishing app. The rest of FishingPoints is fair. Had hoped for more topographical feature and details. Don’t think I would pay 20 bucks for this again.

The depths are close enough but the lack of topography lines makes it difficult. If there were set depths such as 30,50,100,130,150, etc. with lines around the lakes showing where the depth curves and turns it would be much easier to follow specific depths.

FishingPoints is handy for general use, but it lacks some of the lake detail required that could make it an excellent fishing tool. The depth lines are fairly close, but just not quite accurate. The maps are missing some islands and a few of the deeper and shallower contours that I have physically mapped with my depth finder. With a bit more tweaking FishingPoints would be indefensible.

It’s only 4 because I think it could still use some work. I wish it would keep the location center when charting a new course. And free only last so long. I personally only need one area on the map. I can’t justify the price for one area.

Nice maps but it is expensive, especially in a world were you pay for ever single entertainment add on, tv, internet, never thought this would be more than like $5-10 a year

Very helpful in finding out how deep everything is

I recently found FishingPoints, and I am really enjoying it! I have looked at a number of the other products and most of them seem not very intuitive. This has a great blend of ease-of-use, as well as accuracy. I have had my kayak in a number of the areas that I have been researching, and I can attest to the fact that the information given in FishingPoints is pretty darn accurate! As I would plot a route, I almost felt like I was there while looking at these maps at my house. Press and hold to observe the object library, as this will help significantly. Great job folks!

FishingPoints is a great tool to have, I use I often weather planing for a tournament or just scouting a new hole.

Quit asking me to update when I have already updated

Use FishingPoints often and it never let me down

Great user friendly features

Thanks

FishingPoints is great for anyone who boats locally or does very little traveling. It’s detailed enough to boat and fish with.

FishingPoints is awesome for ice fishing and being able to see lake depths and contours. Worth the money to buy the map pack. There are a lot of features to us and map layers. Good job!

I really enjoy the level of detail provided by this map. Colors are helpful and overall it is so easy to explore different areas to drop a hook.

This helped very much since I was unable to bring my fish finder on my fishing trip this year. Had fished the lake before but did not know exactly where the 15' channel was where the fish usually were.

I’m an inexperienced boater in a small Boston Whaler sailing through rock infested waters. FishingPoints was discovered by my daughter while we were maneuvering at mid tide back to the harbor. FishingPoints showed depths and obstacles all around us. FishingPoints is more than advanced technology. FishingPoints brings us now into the realm of Harry Potter.

Today was the day I used FishingPoints out on the water and I have to say it worked flawlessly.
I would recommend to anyone as a matter of fact I have had are whole fishing group ask me the name of FishingPoints as they were also super impressed.

I use it only as a depth and contour map for fishing lake trout on Lake Superior and walleye on some of the smaller surrounding lakes. I’m amazed at how much is available from FishingPoints.
I really feel it would be a great navigational tool for any boating professional or enthusiast all across the country.

I love FishingPoints. I gps mark every place I catch fish so that I can skip the dead areas and concentrate on places that produce. Saves me a lot of time driving so I spend more time fishing. Highly recommend it.

It has a lot of useful information, however the depth chart is off , way off . Either that or I’m missing something but it says 3-5ft in water I know are at least 20 .

All 3 lakes I’ve used it on its inaccurate. Places it’s ssyingvare 40 feet are less then 5 feet. Seems they just guessed the contour lines.

Awesome app. Very accurate with location and depth.

Great app to have on the water. Let's me know exactly where the river channel is in relationship to my position

Easy to use, nicely made

Will be using FishingPoints to decide where to fish. Really detailed.
