Colorado Parks and Wildlife has launched CPW Fishing, a mobile fishing app, for anglers seeking information on new fishing locations or needing to check for updated regulations.
“We’re excited to bring this free, portable resource to the anglers that enjoy Colorado’s abundant waters,” Bob Broscheid, director of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, said in a news release.
“This app was truly designed with the angler in mind. We’ve included offline modes that don’t require a connection, putting fishing conditions for thousands of locations right at your fingertips wherever you are. We’ve also included current regulations for responsible angling and the ability to record catches right where they happen.”
CPW Fishing allows anglers to fully explore the state’s waters, whether searching for a new destination or checking weather conditions at a long-favorite location. The app allows discovery of over 2,000 fishing locations in Colorado, and provides information on the type of fishing at each location, stream gauges, and species availability and accessibility.
The app includes journaling features that allow anglers to record their successes, map catch locations, and share photos and information. Anglers also can become official CPW Master Anglers by using the app to submit their qualifying catch.
Educational features such as up-to-date fishing regulations, fish identification guides and news alerts for key information anglers need to be aware of on the water are also available.
