FAQ
Angling Hubs vs Fishbrain and Navionics
Yes. Our water maps, GPS spots, and local catch reports are free, with no subscription. Detailed depth charts are where the paid apps still go further.
No. Saving spots and waypoints is free. A free account only syncs them across the web and the app so your spots follow you to the water.
Those apps license charts for every body of water in the country. We build on free public water and weather data instead. The businesses listed here pay for their own pages, bookings and app, and that pays for the free tools.
