Simply browse our map to find out!
Depth maps
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
Contour lines and color indicate how deep or shallow bodies of waters are and can also assist in finding structures underwater.
Underwater structures
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.
Fishing strategy
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.
“Fishing spots helps me to see other users success in new waters. This is a perfect tool to expand your fishing grounds. You can also see the leaderboard in each water to find out if there has been caught any big fish in that specific water which is a huge advantage when searching new waters.”
