Explore catch locations, and filter by species, in any body of water you like to fish. Narrow your scope to catches made in a specific month or season to hone in on the perfect strategy. Planning your fishing trip with Fishbrain gives you all the information you need about local boat ramps, marinas, bait shops, license vendors, and more.
Depth maps allow you to create a strategy on where to find fish based on observable structures and the depth of waters. Since certain species are more likely to be found at certain depths, using depth maps allow you to create a strategy on where to find fish.
Contour lines and color indicate how deep or shallow bodies of waters are and can also assist in finding structures underwater.
Lighter colors surrounded by dark waters might for instance indicate reefs and since many fish tend to hide among them it lets you as an angler know the best spot to fish.
When creating your fishing strategy take note of depth changes, look for structures you might find promising as well as anything else of interest to find your prime fishing spot.
