    If you have Word, you can make your own. I have been thinking of doing the same, but with a paper format. That way I can write in it as soon as I get off the water.

    I always wondered why the gps/sonar people have not came up with a program to do this as you fish. It would need to be quick and simple so it would interfere with your fishing as little as possible. You could input as little or as much info as you like. The unit will already have a lot of info, such as-water temp, location, time of day, moon phase, water depth (which may not be relevant if you are casting to bank), I think some units are capable of giving barometric pressure. Might need some sort of remote for input.

    I use a wall calendar with big blocks to write in. When I come in from fishing, I'll note the water temp, number of fish, color of jig and location. Today I have 5 years of calendars and it really helps to give you a starting place to try when you launch the boat. In the spring you know where/when the 1st crappie move up to spawn and what the water temp. was, etc...
