Incredible resource for finding fishy areas. Great tool for scouting inshore structure like rocks, channels, grass beds etc. You can also see prevailing currents as they exit harbors and ponds. You can scope out parking lots, see trails.... I use it all the time as I prepare to fish an area whether I know the area well or not. NOTHING beats actually having your 'boots on the ground,' but if you work a lot of hours or have a long commute to and from the sudz its a great way to familiarize yourself with an area. Its actually one aspect of the internet that I actually DO like as it pertains to fishing.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
