USGS Water Services

The United States Geological Survey operates thousands of stream gauges across every state. FishON! Pro pulls real-time and recent data for any gauge you link to a fishing location — giving you the most authoritative river conditions available anywhere.

NOAA Tides & Currents

NOAA's Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) provides tide predictions and real-time water levels at hundreds of stations along U.S. coastlines, estuaries, and tidal rivers. Essential for coastal and estuary anglers.

National Weather Service

The NWS maintains a nationwide network of weather stations providing current conditions. FishON! Pro captures a comprehensive weather snapshot for each of your locations — the conditions that matter for fishing, not just temperature and rain.

NOAA Northwest River Forecast Center (NWRFC)

The NOAA Northwest River Forecast Center provides flow, water temperature, and historical percentile data for rivers across the Pacific Northwest — including regulated rivers below major dams where USGS coverage is limited. NWRFC data is especially valuable for tailwater fisheries on rivers like the Deschutes, where dam releases drive conditions.

NDBC Buoy Network

The National Data Buoy Center operates hundreds of buoys and coastal stations measuring ocean and Great Lakes conditions. For offshore, coastal bay, and Great Lakes anglers, buoy data provides wave height, water temperature, and wind data that shore stations can't capture.
