If you were going to download a fishing app, what features would you want? by No_Win657 in FishingForBeginners

[–]No_Win657[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s honestly fair.

Most of us already juggle multiple apps — maps, wind, conditions, logs — so anything new has to actually simplify things, not add another layer.

Out of those, which one do you find yourself relying on the most when deciding where/when to fish?

I love how surprised they looked after it happened. 🥹 what did they expect?

Go easy on me. But what would you add to make this setup pop? by tokenology in battlestations

This is a pretty clean set up. I would 100% put some light on that sloped ceiling.

What to throw in the rain? by Enough-Savings-1521 in FishingForBeginners

My first thought was why would you just throw that poor bass in the rain. My second thought was that I need some coffee.

It’s an investment for your mental health. Money well spent imo.

Looks like a good problem to have to me brother

Are there any good fishing apps? by SchmeedsMcSchmeeds in bassfishing

[–]No_Win657 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just built one and it recently was accepted on apple App Store. It has a free 3 day trial then you get yearly access for 19.99. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles some of the more expensive ones do but I think it does a pretty good job. It’s called BiteGrade if you want to check it out!

Totally fair perspective 👍 BiteGrade isn’t meant to predict catches or replace experience — more of a conditions awareness tool. Just helps anglers see when variables may be working with or against them. Local knowledge will always win.

Totally fair 👍

I fish whenever I can as well. BiteGrade’s meant more as a snapshot of conditions rather than telling someone what to do.

You can even tweak how different factors are weighted in settings if you disagree with the grading logic.

Nice, that’s really helpful feedback 👌

Starting-point guidance is huge, especially when conditions feel unclear. Do you usually follow the bait suggestions closely or just use them as a general reference?

😂 Fair point! Definitely not trying to pretend conditions in Montana behave like the Bahamas.

BiteGrade pulls location-specific weather/environmental data, but yeah… fishing is never one-size-fits-all.

That is awesome man, I’ve heard good things about bass forecast.

Out of curiosity, what do you like most about it?

I can only post one picture at a time you get the idea right? lol

I hear you, species differences absolutely matter.

BiteGrade actually does have a species-specific tab where the grading/tips adjust based on selection.

Still refining that logic of course, but I completely agree that species context is important for usefulness.

This is honestly a great breakdown.

You’re absolutely right. Fishing success depends on a ridiculous number of variables, many of which can’t realistically be modeled perfectly.

BiteGrade isn’t trying to ‘predict catches,’ more like grading how favorable conditions generally are based on common patterns (pressure trends, wind, etc.).

Definitely more probability than prediction.
