SpotOn Fishing, a leader in future defining tech for anglers, today announced the latest evolution of its fishing platform - the SpotOn Fishing mobile app. Designed to help anglers plan smarter, fish more efficiently, and explore with confidence, the app delivers lightning-fast performance, crystal-clear maps, and powerful fishing tools in the palm of your hand. Supporting the app, SpotOn Fishing also introduced two rugged hardware options, the Hydros7 Outdoorsman Tablet and Andros 8 Marine Computer, powered by Seatronx, built to give anglers a seamless, professional-level experience on the water.

At the core of the SpotOn Fishing ecosystem is the consistently updated SpotOn Fishing mobile app, which is the ultimate control center for anglers. Available for both Android and iOS, the app delivers instant, lag-free map navigation and high-resolution aerial imagery with 3D shaded relief structure imagery featuring centimeter-accurate data that helps anglers find more fish. Navigation is user-friendly with real time insights and live weather overlays. The SpotOn Fishing app is the only mobile app that offers fishing tracks designed by the SpotOn fishing team, professional anglers, and the SpotOn Fishing user community. Its library of custom fishing maps and overlays is constantly growing with updates sent directly to a mobile device. Whether running on a smartphone, tablet, or marine computer, SpotOn Fishing delivers the same performance across all devices, with the Hydros7 Outdoorsman Tablet and Andros 8 Marine Computer providing rugged, dedicated hardware options. Whether online or offline, the platform puts professional-level mapping and insight in the hands of every user.

For inshore use Pro Aerial Maps are specially processed for clarity even in direct sunlight and allow users to view areas at different tide intervals to navigate shallow waters, choose better routes, and spot vegetation changes. Comparing imagery from multiple sources and times helps uncover subtle shoreline, sandbar, or grass flat shifts that can lead to great inshore opportunities.

Offshore users can use SpotOn Fishing's offshore structure maps, while sourced from the same datasets competitors use, are uniquely processed to reveal wrecks, reefs, drop-offs, and bottom contours not easily visible on other platforms. Anglers can choose between the Basic High-Resolution Structure option - which taps into NOAA's latest additions for areas not yet covered by regional Pro Structure Maps - or the Regional Pro Structure Maps, which feature exclusive color palettes that showcase structure like no other. Offshore anglers can pair these structure maps with the Fishing Spots overlay, which includes everything from public wreck and reef locations to proven waypoints for targeting bucket-list catches. They can also use the Sea Surface Temperature overlay, updated every four hours, to locate temperature breaks that often hold fish, combining these environmental cues with structure detail to identify the most productive zones on the map.

For lake use Pro Lake Structure Maps offer an exclusive visual revealing underwater humps, ledges, troughs, and contour breaks that help anglers avoid seasonal downtime and stay on productive fish year-round. Currently available for select popular lakes, with a growing catalog of expanding coverage, these maps are ideal for reading underwater terrain. When paired with SpotOn Fishing's multiple aerial map options, users can see vegetation patterns from different time periods on the surface and surrounding areas, then combine that knowledge with the high-resolution 3D structure view of the lake bottom to pinpoint more opportunities.

Cruisers can also take advantage of SpotOn Fishing's Pro Aerial Maps, which give cruisers the ideal resource for planning and navigating routes in a variety of conditions. Paired with high-resolution 3D structure maps, cruisers can identify underwater features and potential hazards in advance, making route planning more precise. These high-resolution aerial maps can also be saved for offline use, ensuring reliable navigation when traveling in areas without data coverage, and the Navigation Aids overlay provides an extra layer of awareness for more informed cruising.

Finally, SpotOn Fishing keeps anglers and boaters informed with real-time weather overlays that update continuously. Users can toggle rain and lightning layers individually for a clearer view of what matters most to their trip. The high-resolution radar imagery delivers pinpoint detail, while an adjustable opacity slider allows full control over how the weather data appears on the map - making it easy to balance live conditions with the underlying imagery or charts.

"We're not just building another fishing app, we're redefining how anglers and boaters experience the water," said Nick Gaffney, founder of SpotOn Fishing. "Every update raises the bar, delivering faster performance, sharper imagery, and smarter tools that keep our users ahead of the game. We're committed to continuous innovation, whether you're chasing redfish in skinny water, going deep for daytime swordfish, fishing year-round for bass, or simply looking for better imagery and routes for cruising, SpotOn Fishing will always be the most powerful tool at your helm."
