FishDope has been designed to give members all the pertinent information needed to plan a successful day on the water. Only FishDope combines daily detailed fishing reports with the latest high-resolution satellite sea surface imagery to take the guesswork out of deciding where to fish.

With Fishdope Fishing App we have combined SSTs, chlorophyll concentration, the latest fishing reports, and buoy and wind data all into a single interactive interface. The data is displayed in an easy-to-understand format that can be cached and then browsed when on the water (even without internet connection) for quick reference.

REQUIREMENTS: Active Fishdope.com membership subscription, wifi or cellular internet connection for retrieving charts and reports.
Next level awesomeness!
It’s an excellent compilation of all the report data. The app excels is offshore fishing,But is also great for any trip to anyone of our islands. Even if fuel was not almost 7 dollars a gallon, The time you save by getting to where the bluefin were 10 or 12 hours ago just cannot be beat for the yearly fee. When they have the plane spotting service, once a week I believe, you are truly set up for success. It can also save you a trip when it’s not worth going out, that alone is priceless. If a full tank is $500, the price of the subscription is peanuts.

App doesn’t work
Although I love fish dope and think it’s a great service for all fisherman to use but there app simply doesn’t work. I try to login and always says my password is wrong even though I know it’s right. I find my self going on the website a lot of the time which works great.

This is a great app!
I like the app. A lot. I like that it integrates well with the FishDope membership and daily updated information. Best part is the chart displaying your real-time location in relation to the information(tempbreaks, chloroform, hot bites etc) Thank you for an awesome app to help me plan and implement my time on the water efficiently and effectively!
Best fish reporting app for So Cal
The new version of this app is much improved over the old. The fish reports added to the app along with VHF radio is a huge improvement. The charts are way better than they used to be and have all the tools that used to be just for the web version. I love the addition of the wind forecast. If you have a boat and fish in LA/San Diego/ upper Baja area this is a must have tool. They fly an airplane and find schools of fish no one knows about then reports them to the app!
