CrappieRadar — Live Radar, Weather & Solunar Fishing Times FLAGSHIP TOOL

Our live conditions dashboard for anglers — real-time NOAA radar, current weather, tides, and a full solunar fishing calculator covering 89 Florida waterways, all on one screen.

Live Radar & Interactive Map — a 4-hour playback scrubber, NOAA's animated loop, or the latest single frame, plus a pannable Interactive Map with a live wind speed/direction overlay for every waterway. Switchable across 4 NEXRAD stations covering all of Florida
Real Solunar Times — fishing rating, moon phase, and Major/Minor windows from actual moon-transit and rise/set times, not a lookup table — now shown as a circular clock graphic right on the main screen, no need to open the calendar just to check today
72-Hour Pressure Outlook — a live barometer plus a 3-day forecast sparkline that flags approaching fronts, covering all 89 Florida waterways — it even nudges the day's rating up or down, right on the main screen and in the Fishing Calendar, when a front's on the way
Always-On Conditions — weather, tides (including 12 St. Johns River points), water temperature, active alerts, and river/lake flood-stage tracking, updated continuously
Full Fishing Calendar — a month of solunar data for any of 89 Florida waterways, one dropdown away
Use My Exact Location — beyond the 89 curated lakes, one tap pulls your device's GPS coordinates directly — solunar times, the nearest radar station, and the map all work for wherever you actually are
Track Your Route — watch your GPS position continuously and draw the path you've traveled right on the Interactive Map, with live distance and elapsed time — handy for marking productive stretches of a lake or retracing your steps later
Jig Color Guide — a quick-reference card for jig color by water clarity and light, plus how moon phase should shift your approach, one tap from the main screen
6 Color Themes — Dark, Red, Blue, Green, Teal, or Orange. Pick your look and it's remembered next time you open the app

Log in to open CrappieRadar from your dashboard — it installs right on your phone's home screen too, no browser bar needed.
