I use my phone and go to www.fishwestend.com. they have some pretty cool links for the bay and gulf forecast as well as tide tables. ;-)

I walk outside and look at the flag across the street for wind direction and a mph guesstimate.

X2 on fishwestend.com for other conditions

I have EarthNC marine charts on my drioid x and its pretty cool for a backup if my gps goes down or Im in another boat.

TapaTalk is a forum based application allowing you to post on the website (fishwestend) and upload images from your phone in the field. No need to go to photobucket & upload it etc... Very friendly APP for viewing the website. The mobile site still works but TAPATALK is in a league of its own!

Windfinder is a good one to have.

I use mine to call my wife and tell her I'm not coming home!
Any weather app with a good radar that loops is a must...Weatherbug suits me. Also a simple Maps app that has satelite veiw on it's layering view is helpful. I've actually pulled up to an East Maty cove, pulled that up and looked at where the gut was located, then I knew where to wade! "Around Me" app is good when traveling with the boat to areas you don't usually frequent...push it and it easily telsl you where the gas stations, restaurants, hotels, strip clubs...okay that one was for Robalo, and I guess JT!


Not fish related, but I've been watching movies on my Droid...mediamp4.com...pull it up and place on Bookmarks. You can literally watch 100's of movies on your cell. A good set of speaks or earphones...your set for anything from Stag Night of the Dead...to Shrek XXX when the fish aren't biting!

Does anyone have any new apps they recommend for tides and weather? Thanks

[Termo]

AccuWeather, Compass, Google Earth, Fishing Knots, Tapatalk, US Tides.....these are the ones I use the most.......Google Earth is a MUST! Now if someone knows a "NO POTLICKERS" app, I'm interested.
