You just gotta take a look at this!

I checked out that program last year and thought that it was pretty amazing,
but I guess I dropped the ball and never went any farther to find out about
pricing. I downloaded the Pro version, but I haven't wanted to install it
yet because of the time clock inbetted into it. I'll save the 30 days use
for the summer season.

truly thought the site would lend itself to viewing a lake for locating

A good tool to look at a lake one hasn't yet to fish? Discover lakes,
lakes
that haven't got any roads to yet. Too many benefits to me not to share
with others. I somehow thought it would stand on its own merit and be

If I was going to spam intentionally I don't think I would have done it in
this manner. Oh well.
I will try out the "Pro version" of this site come the middle of the month
through to October. I wouldn't dare comment on the site after this though.

Most trial programs that you download only have a time use of 30 days
embedded into itself, so that it won't work after the 30 days are up.
Thereby causing you to purchase the program for future use, hence, the name
"trial" version.

Stony, rest assured. I use a website (not the one you mentioned) that shows
aerial and sat images of locations. It IS a good tool to find new holes.
It updates every few years so you won't find daily changes but it's useful
and you can find gps coordinates to map it out.

Stony,

I hope you were not referring to me with your "focus beyond the end of
their own nose" comment.

Many of us use satellite pictures to do exactly what you said in you
4th post - look for structure, new lakes, etc.

Your first post did not say anything about what the site was,
therefore, I did not bother checking it out. Had your post told us up
front that it was a program for viewing satellite images, that you had
used it, and found it interesting/helpful, than maybe I would have
checked it out. Also, many (including myself) may not have thought
of it as SPAM.

In a follow up post, you made it sound like it could be used to check
on weed growth every few days. This sounded interesting, so I checked
out the site, and found that it would not work as you said. How would
a picture that is updated every 2-3 years show me "weed growth"? It
is becoming more obvious that you have never even used this program.

As for the cost, $70 per year, for the consumer version, is an OK
price if I would use it a lot, but $600 per year for the 'pro' version
is more than a little steep.

Now Lets Go Fishing!

No Kurt, I was not referring to you! Sorry if you interpreted it that way.
Like I said though there was no spam intended and maybe my definition is
skewed? The thought of sharing was my intent and this group I consider to
be brothers and brothers-in-law and the odd sister mixed in there too ;-).
I didn't really expect to take the heat like this at all but more on the ,
thanks what a great tool! Sometimes I don't have the time to write a
diatribe thingie in respect of these issues. I did not use this site as I
was under the impression that it would be current. I wanted to save free
view for the end of the month but as you say updates are two to three years
apart, thanks for that.
If you are using a site that has the same imaging with more current info
available I would like you to post it, please.

Terrific Bubba! Would you mind sharing it with the group?! I don't think my
lake has changed that much in the past fifty or so years ;-)

I hardly found your first posting to be spam... You don't have a
financial interest in the site, do you?

As far as the site goes, I didn't find much value. I downloaded the
Keyhole LT version, and didn't see any detail worth talking about, aside
from some good roadmaps (at least for Central IN). I appreciate you
pointing it out to us...

I use TerraServer at:

http://terraserver.microsoft.com/

I have made some really nice topo maps from this site, but it takes a
lot of time and a lot of screenshots.

Have a look! It gives you a choice of aerial photo or topo and it's free...

I fish the early seasons up here and know that the weeds die off each season.
I'm not sure how you could keep track of weed growth from satellite photos and
turn that into some sort of opportunistic fishing situation. I guess Stony has
the smarts to do it.
I have one (of a dozen) satellite map that shows off the Great Lakes and also
some of the smaller lakes. The maps are quite inspirational to look at from a
fishing perspective. There is 400,000 lakes in Ontario.

I have tried the Nvidia version. It is kind of fun to play with but of not
much use to me.
It contains very little Canadian content. Only Vancouver, Montreal &
Toronto. Cannot even get a view of the Canadian side of the Detroit River
or Lake St. Clair.
If you are looking for Eastern Ontario, like Stony Lake, forget about it.
