    Default Old Man And New Toy


    Visited with EE today here at Windsor and he has introduced me to the Google Earth Map of Truman, man what a blast... charted old Ron and My course from last week from Berry Bend ramp up to Z bridge, then back down to Berry to Hoagle Creek and back to Berry ramp...round trip 30.2 miles and i used 8.5 gallons of gas..... Heck that old 95 EFI 150 Merc gets better mileage than I thought... Man I got stick pins all over this map showing where we catch fish....... Just what a peckerwood like me needs to remeber where I was yesterday... Like the way u can put the path right on it where u have been...... I know I am about 5 years behind on upgrades.... but new to me......... Hang on ..... them reports may get wild.......

    Pretty slick system. I use to use one called Terra something. It was black and white and fuzzy. Goggle earth is a lot clearer. Hell I even have it built right in on my new Iphone. Has directions just like mapguest and gps like a tomtom in a car but with the satilite pictures.

    Waypoints are your fishing spots or GPS coordinates. Mine stores 1000 and then you just download to a SM card and go again.
