I was thinking recently why there was numerous apps pertaining to spin and and bait fisherman, but there was nothing that really that caters to the fly fisherman or woman. After opening up my Facebook and scrolling through the other day I noticed my friend over at The Fiberglass Manifesto had put up something about a new fly fishing app called ‘The Hatch’. It cost .99 cents to download from apple or you can download “lite” version which is free. It won’t be nearly as in depth as the full version, but it will give you a sense of what you could be missing. I believe it only covers Oregon. Currently the full version app covers 35 states and 300 rivers.
I haven’t downloaded it yet, but will be tonight after work!
Imagine you are planning a fly fishing trip to the Yellowstone River in June and want to know what to fill your fly box with? Or if you are organizing your flies for a fishing trip tomorrow and need to know what to pack. Make planning your fly fishing trip a little easier with ‘The Hatch’.
‘The Hatch’ gives you a hatch chart in your pocket. The Hatch has a growing number of States and Rivers being added, make sure your fly box is ready for whatever may be hatching where ever your trip takes you.
Simply pick the Month, State, and River and you will be provided with helpful information including recommended patterns, pictures of bugs, and links to recipes and patterns at http://www.flyrecipes.com.
‘The Hatch’ works offline, so its use can be found on the river where service may not exist. Access to http://www.flyrecipes.com will require internet access.
Vist http://www.corypratt.com to see a list of the included states and rivers. More states and rivers will be provided in future releases.
