River Data by Fizzy Artwerks is probably one of my most used Apps on my phone. I run an Apple 6+, and I log in each morning on my way to the river to see if there are any changes that I need to know about. As an avid steelhead angler I know that water level and temperature are two key components that I need to follow to have the most success on the river.
River Data allows be to connect easily and quickly to all the USGS sites that I need to follow. Listed on your favorites home screen I can connect to any USGS that I have tagged as a favorite. As you can see I follow a few different sites on the Manistee River. I look for temperature differences and if water volume is increase or decreasing upstream.
Having these river sites tagged as favorites makes for easy navigation , and my personal favorites are a quick click away.
River Data lists your favorite sites alphabetically to make the search even quicker for you. All you have to do is tap the star icon on a USGS site and it’s added to your favorite list.
