Smart Trip Map, the free Google Maps Fishing App

Smart Trip Map is one web application for the avid fisherman. We have made it available absolutely free since 2008 without the usual annoying ads and popups, and without spamming our users or sharing and selling their information. This app was built by an avid fly fisherman for himself, and then provided to the rest of the community with no strings attached.

Getting USGS or USBR Streamflow Gages, NOAA Tide Charts, National Weather Service (NWS) Weather Forecasts and Conditions, and much more, has never been easier thanks to this free, full-featured Google maps fishing app.

All of the features of Smart Trip Map are free. This Google maps fishing app was made for fishermen, by fishermen. It is completely secure, and absolutely private, as it was built on the premise that you'd never want to find someone standing on your favorite rock.
