Do fishing apps actually help or is google maps better?

hey everyone,

looking into apps like fishbrain, fishangler, and fishbox. do they actually help you catch more fish, or are they just gimmicks?

a lot of the "hot spots" seem overfished. i've heard of people having way better luck just using google maps satellite view to scout out hidden structures, drop-offs, and isolated spots on their own.

for those who use them: do these apps give you an edge, or is a solid understanding of google maps and weather all you really need?

In search of fathom manufacturing alternatives for cnc machining

The project is a 6061 aluminum sensor housing for an industrial monitoring device. It’s a small rectangular enclosure with:

Milled internal pocket for the PCB
O ring groove around the lid
Four threaded M3 mounting holes
Cable gland opening on one side
Light bead blast or anodized finish
Flat sealing surface

My main goal is ensuring tolerances around the O ring groove and mating surfaces need to be as tight as possible, but sticking close to the original quote also matters a lot. Only need 10-25 units in the first run so its pretty low volume. I'm considering Quickparts, Uptive and Protolabs. Any thoughts?
