Frequently Ask Questions

Is there a fee to join Fishing Spots?

Fishing Spots is $2.95 to join, we also ask for your first and last name and email address for login purposes. In the future we aim to give our users content delivered to your inbox to help you catch more fish.

Why is it $2.95?

We’ve worked countless hours to make the website and find / add all the spot information. We also pay for website hosting, Google Maps API and other API to deliver helpful content to help you catch a fish or two. We’d love for it to be free, eventually.

How do you recommended lures?

Fishing Spots recommends lures that have caught fish at those particular fishing locations. Lures are picked and assigned to locations, giving that lure a 4-5 star rating. In some instances lures match the fish species and region, giving it a 3 star rating, if the lure only matches a region or a fish species then it will be a 2 star rating. Three stars and below means that lure will only be suitable for some species in the area, for example if a location is a creek, beach and offshore fishing, a small soft plastic will only match fish in the creek, thus being 2-3 stars.

Can I buy lures on Fishing Spots?

No. Fishing Spots only recommends lures. Our goal is to empower anglers with the knowledge and tools to catch fish. We will sell lures eventually, but we want to hand pick lures and gear that works, last long and doesn’t break the bank.

What new features are coming to Fishing Spots?

We’ve got a long list, but man, this is time consuming… eventually:

  • Finish adding all spots Australia Wide
  • Update the weather – moon phases, wind etc
  • Clean up the map scripts to make the site faster
  • Sell lures and gear
