Customer Catch Story: Brad Irby

“The BassForecast app has proven to me numerous times that the ratings are legit. I mix it up every time I go out on the water, in that, I do not always look at the app BEFORE I go, but sometimes I open the app after I’ve been on the water for a while to see if the bite correlates with the ratings. Some days, I might not get bit but one or two times; I will open the app and check the ratings, come to find out the ratings for that day is super low. Other times I go out and get bit nonstop during a certain timeframe, sure enough, the ratings and major times correlate exactly! On the day of this bass, I knew the ratings were decent and the major time wasn’t until later in the morning into the afternoon based on the BassForecast app. So, even though it was HOT and WINDY, I stuck around to find out. It did not disappoint! After catching the 8.53# Sharelunker, I checked the app again, and confirmed. This app has given me some confidence in a lot of cases that I would otherwise have called it “a day” and went home.”
