About The Australian Fishing App

Android's first fully interactive and most comprehensive app for Australian fishermen.

* A complete fishing reference, featuring over 250 fish, shark, ray and invertebrate species. Extensive info for every listing, including common and latin names, ratings, range, size, identification, where to find and how to catch, as well as eating notes. The guide is categorised and fully searchable for simple access.

* Fishing rules and regulations for every listed species, unique for each state and territory of Australia.

* Fully interactive! Share your catches and see what everyone else in the country is catching. Interact with others and comment on their catches. Filter your results to find the precise info you're looking for. Catches are searchable and can be viewed on a sortable list or a map, so you can see exactly where Australians are catching fish, and how.

* Log your catches in as much or as little detail as you wish, with dozens of possible variables.

* Save and share your fishing spots, favourite tackle stores, boat ramps or other places of interest. Comment on shared places.

* Completely integrated with Facebook. Share your catches with all your online friends.

* Dozens of fishing tips, hints and facts about fish and fishing.

----------

A note about the initial release:

For now, this app specialises in saltwater fish and fishing. In the near future, the database will be expanded to include more freshwater fish, as well as invertebrates and baitfish.

The app is being developed intensively, and new features will be introduced progressively over the next few weeks. The database of species, tips, hints and trivia is also being expanded.

Happy fishing!

At the start when i got the app it didn't say profile name or anything like that, and I still don't know how other people around the country had a user name. And i still don't know how to edit my profile so I can have a username. Plus, the app doesn't have any freshwater species, like yellow belly, Australian bass or trout ect. Cause I do a lot of freshwater fishing it was a real bummer that they didn't have that. Please tell me how to get a username.

Really good app. Good for passing time, good info, very functional. You wont be disappointed. 2 things id like to see added: 1. Freshwater fish. 2. Reccomended rigs with a diagram for each species profile.

This app is fantastic. Lots of useful information and plenty of tips and tricks. Would it br possible to show the distribution of the fish species in Australia in some kind of mini-map form? That'd be pretty cool to add! definitely worth buying the full app nevertheless!

Looks like good app but needs a freshwater section in guide tab anf needs to have size limits updated

Had an invalid package.. After a restart it worked... :-)

Pretty good. Would be great if we could add multiple catches of species at the same location or even add catches based off another catch. Is a pain to add multiple catches of same species from same location currently. Apart from that it works well.

Would be good if it had the option to filter out catches by anonymous people or without photos, also being able to filter everything out except your mates would be a cool option as well. As more and more people start using this app the need to filter out or in certain things will keep making it the great fishing app it is

How about adding quid, calamari,and prawn species as they are quite abundant around areas of australia and are regularly targeted

This app is very good! Very well thought out and organised and very easy to use. I only have one issue, it only allows pictures taken with the camera to be uploaded. It won't upload pictures taken on another device, and it even crashes when I try to add it in the edit catch mode.

Works bloody well, tide times added would make it the must have. Money well spent. Thank you.

Waste of money if you fish Melbourne and surrounds. Poor filtering, favourites and relies too heavily on users to report.

Very handy to take out on the boat. No need to flick through a book or a dozen pamphlets to identify and size my catch. And it's cool that I can share my catch with others. Thanks.

I have only just downloaded this and it looks great. Incredible detail in the guide and lots of easy to identify fish photos. I am looking forward to adding my own fish when I next get out on the water.

I like the consecpt for this app but I am really disappointed at the lack of freshwater species eg no trout no golden perch no red fin ect. I live in northern Victoria so coastal catchs don't interest me. Please address this and I will review my score.

Just needs more people on the app and maybe a section we can all chat live on one screen. Other then that its a great app so far.

I love fishing and the thing that keeps me going when the conditions are not fishable is looking for new gear and info on what I want to target next. I look forward to seeing more apps released by this developer. Thanks for the app. Well worth the money.

As it's popularity increases I think this app will become very handy for keen fishos. A moon and tides section would be good too. Nice work!!

This is an excellent app... well researched..... & very helpful

Simply the best for fishermen or anyone who has an intreset in fishing. But gotta fix one thing, when I open a fish and look at the rules and other things about the fish. I go to cathes of that fish and it take me back to the home page. And as it is an excellent app I recommend putting in fishing rigs (popular rigs) . Other than that love it.

Bullshit app. No updates to crappy version. Only shows months old catches from other people not the recent ones. Error on clicking many menu buttons and force closes. Android 2.3
