User Reviews

Overall, users praise onWater for its breadth of fishing data, planning tools, AI help, journaling, and responsive support, often describing it as the best fishing app with strong value compared to rivals. The most common drawbacks are pricing and subscription confusion, frequent upgrade prompts, and perceived data gaps in many water bodies, with some reviewers seeing it as mostly a map with limited fish information. Users also report bugs in the measuring tool and uneven feature completeness, suggesting the app is powerful but not consistently polished.

Pros

Extensive fishing data and planning tools, including maps with boat ramps, species maps, river miles, flow data, and more.
AI-assisted features and quick Q&A help users learn what fish are in areas and how to fish them.
Robust journaling and bookmarking: save put-in/take-out pins, monitor conditions, record routes and distances.
Responsive support and regular updates with walkthroughs that help new features be discovered.
Strong overall value and favorable stance versus competitors like TroutRoutes.

Cons

Pricing and billing issues, including upsell prompts and reported charges or refunds.
Data gaps: many water bodies lack fish information, making the app feel like a map with little content.
Aggressive upgrade prompts and cluttered map/UI that detracts from usability.
Buggy measuring tool and other features that feel unfinished.
Inconsistent tier design (Premium vs Pro) and perceived unfinished state compared to paid apps.

Recent reviews

Upgrades should be paid, but can't even get basic info on a fishing spot for free.

Former pro member here. You know the anglers that blow ludicrous amounts of money on flashy gear that doesn’t actually work very well and they’re insanely proud of it? Those are the people running OnWater. Their massive push to make everything revolve around AI shows that they give zero F’s about protecting fisheries or for local fly and tackle shops. On top of that, for $90/year you can access satellite imagery that’s more grainy and out of date than what you can get for free on Google Maps. They’re also really trying to push the integration of social media aspects into the app, which raises serious concerns about whether points you save are actually private or if it’s available for every angler that wants to use barbed treble hooks to snag trout in your favorite hole. Do yourselves a favor. Go to the search bar, type in TroutRoutes, download it, buy the one state annual membership for 1/5 of the cost, and know you won’t have AI slop popping up every 2 seconds when you’re trying to digitally scout fishing spots.
