Not upfront with true cost of the app and it's disappointing. If I wanted to do a private buy in tourney amongst friends I have no idea what the cost would be up front which is troubling. Edit- So when you get your tournament set up, you get a sort of "concierge" to help you fine tune it which is really nice. They are really responsive and helpful which made me boost my score but you still have to dig for info I feel. It is a cool app and worth the download.

Excellent app. It is great to encourage immediate C&R of fish, minimizing impact to the resource. Fun to watch in real-time your current status. I had never fished an actual tournament before, now I'm in my third one through the app. I had a glitch with my digital livewell, reached out via email through the app, issue was resolved very quickly! Would recommend to anyone, great way to meet new people with a common interest, along with some fun competition between friends.

We like the app and that the tournaments we fish are catch and release. However, a timer would be nice. It's hard to get selfie pictures if you are fishing alone. I just found the flash button. Hope it works when theres still some light. I had a hard time holding the camera, keeping the fish on the board and getting enough light to see the scale. Look forward to improvements.

Yes. I have found myself looking for a timer as well. We will add a timer at some point as we are headed in that direction. In the meantime, please use the selfie button or use the video feature to record yourself. It doesn't need to be a perfect trophy shot to comply with tournament rules. Thank you for using our app.
