Terms of Service

MyTailwater is a tailwater board for anglers. The live board, favorites, and email alerts may be used without agreeing to texts. By creating an account you agree to these terms.

River data

Flows, generation, and CFS figures are provisional and can change without notice. They are not a substitute for watching the river. Do not wade or boat a tailwater based on this site alone.

SMS program

Recurring automated informational texts about dams you choose to monitor: generation starting, generation dropping back, high water, or a flow (CFS) you set. These are river alerts only — not marketing, not ads, not promotions.

Message frequency varies. Most anglers get a few texts per week per dam, more on a generation day. We text when a watched dam actually changes — not every time we poll the river.

Message and data rates may apply to optional MyTailwater texts. Reply STOP to cancel. Reply HELP for help. You can also tap Stop all texts in your account. We send one confirmation after STOP. Consent to texts is not a condition of using the board or of purchasing Pro or Unlimited. Free accounts do not receive SMS. Pro and Unlimited members may separately opt in after entering a mobile number and checking the consent box. Buying a paid plan does not enroll you in texts.

Accounts

You are responsible for the email, phone, and sign-in method you use. Do not submit a number you do not own. Paid plans are billed through Stripe as shown on Plans.

Community photographs

Pro and Unlimited members may submit catch photographs associated with a dam. Submissions are reviewed before they appear. You represent that you own the photograph or have permission to submit it, and that it does not include exact fishing coordinates or other people’s private information.

Catch photographs are also governed by the MyTailwater Promotional User Content License in effect at the time of submission. That license is a supplement to these Terms. Your content remains yours. The version you accepted is recorded with your submission.
