Fishing Status is a life saver! I was surprised how easy it was to import all of the fishing spots into my Lowrance. It would have taken me weeks to enter in each spot manually. Thanks for making it so easy and the updates are great.

I have found your fishing forecast and predictions are accurate. We went out yesterday and we caught the most fish almost exactly when it said we would. The color recommendations have proven to be just as reliable. I think you have found the secret!

Fishing Status has the best tools for researching my next fishing trip. The maps, reports, spots, and prediction keep me on my game. Without Fishing Status I would be spending days trying to figure out what's going on. Thank you!

If all else fails, here are some other options: Light Orange, Light Orange/White, or Red/Light Orange colored lures. You can use Silver spoons, spinnerbaits, or trim for on the lures. For extra effect, try a lure with a chartruse or flourescent colored tail.
