About this app

This application is for beginner and intermediate anglers who want to have access to a quick surf fishing assistant. This quick reference will help find and catch more fish. It is designed primarily for saltwater fishing, for those who are angling from the surf, piers or rock jetties. The interface queries for several "conditions", then posts results based on tide, surf, weather, wind, water clarity and more. The results page tells anglers where to fish, the best bait to use, color, size, sound, line type, direction, location, best fish to target and more. It also has a library with details on the most common sportfish being targeted in saltwater. There is also a section outlining tackle tips, fishing notes, saltwater rigs and more. Finally, there's a section to save your largest catch with info like where it was caught, the length, weight, bait used, and more.

Store update history

Each store’s release notes, as the developer wrote them. They are the developer’s words, not ours.

App Store

Version 5.0 · 2023-05-15
The latest revision of Saltwater Angler has a cleaner look, works faster on the latest OS, and has new information and tips to give anglers a better toolbox to work with. Don't let a tough bite get you down, pop up this app and let it help you find the fish. Utilizing the latest iPhone and iPad graphics, Saltwater Angler has never been as smooth and easy to use as it is now. Additional items have been added to the library and equipment, and the limited fish log was removed. This new release was a long time coming, but V5.0 is a great updated platform relevant for years to come.

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
