Previously, I always did my own research in preparation for a day on the water. But I've relocated and have gone from a bass boat to an electric kayak with top end speed of 4 mph. There's some big bodies of water here and I need to get smart before venturing out since I need to be highly efficient in a small, slow vessel. 

 

Can anyone recommend some good fishing apps to help me do my homework?  Weather, wind, current, etc are good, but I know some apps make recommendations for locations, depths, lures by time of year/temp. I just need a good starting point and can take it from there...

 

Some apps are free, some charge a monthly fee - I'm open.  

 

What's a couple really good ones to look into?  TIA

I check bassforecast regularly when I fish. It can be a good reminder of places or presentations I forgot. I figure for the price of a few lures it doesn't have to get me on too many fish every year to be worth it. 

The solunar data is very precise, if that's your thing. I think there's something to it, especially the 'minor' windows. 

Historical weather data is useful too - looking at the weather at that location for the few days prior to when I fish can help. 

Also, there's a pinned post around here somwhere with free lake maps, which can be very helpful in planning.
