About this app

Get out on the water and challenge yourself and your friends with the GoFree Hooked fishing app. Host or compete in live-leaderboard style fishing tournaments, log fish-catch details and photos, and populate your Insight Genesis maps with pins marking the locations of the fish you catch - whether you hooked ‘em in your boat, a buddy’s boat or from the shore. You can even export your data for use in a compatible Lowrance or Simrad chartplotter.

GoFree Hooked fishing app is designed for all anglers, regardless of fishing skill level, onshore and offshore, in the boat and on the bank, as well as in freshwater and saltwater fishing environments.

Overlay Catches on Insight Genesis
Since the app uses your GoFree Account credentials, users have the capability to overlay catch details as a private layer on the Insight Genesis Social Map. Review this information on your computer screen, or take it with you as waypoints. If you want to take it to your chartplotter display, just save these waypoints from within your Insight Genesis account to an SD card and insert the card into your Lowrance or Simrad chartplotter.
