mac7373 Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 I was watching one of the fishing shows on ESPN the other day and one of the pros who had just finished in the top 5 for the first time or won the tournament or something to that effect stated he had "used aerial photos" to locate some of his targeted areas on this particular lake. He said the guy he gets them from has or can get just about any major lake in the US. He gave the guys name and website but I was lying in bed half awake and half asleep and I can't remember the name or website to save my life. Any ideas as to where I can find this stuff, not necessarily the same stuff, but a good site with printable aerial lake photos? Thanks Quote
Mike H. Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=Topo+Maps Plenty of topo websites on that search. Also, Google has a neat Topo Map program. http://www.keyhole.com/ Quote
Muddpuppy Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 Most airports know or have a photographer. Two of the online sites I use are Mytopo.com and Topo Zone Quote
waterfoul Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 I find topo maps fairly usless for fishng.... I think what Mac is looking for is aerial photographs. If you were in Michigan I could help you out with this site: http://www.aerialgraphics.com/lakelist.htm Quote
bipr8 Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 http://maps.google.com/ Great site for aerial maps. Click on where you need to go (zoom in, etc), and then in the top right, switch the view from Topo to Satellite Quote
BD Posted May 23, 2005 Posted May 23, 2005 I think he was talking about this site you can pay for, and they have bass with trackers on them, and they study major lakes etc. I can't for the life of me, remember the name of the site. Quote
Will Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 This is a good website for those photos http://www.terraserver.com/ Quote
