Today I am bringing you my Google Earth fishing tutorial video. I pair Google Earth Pro with the Navionics web app to find secret honey holes. This strategy can be used while at home before you head to the lake. There are also mobile apps for each if you prefer to use a phone or tablet. I start by using Navionics to find exciting spots based on contours. I then go to google Earth Pro to show the lakes drawn down to see if there is anything that you can’t see when the lake is at a normal pool. If you are using Google Earth Pro you can also drop a pin on the location so you don’t lose it.
I started using this strategy while fishing bass tournaments here in Oklahoma. Even though looking for bass was the primary focus this can be adapted to find any species. If you know what structure and cover your target species uses then this strategy can be modified to find those spots. I am showing this using Oklahoma lakes because that is where I am from. Oklahoma lakes are loaded with spots that most anglers pass up. Using this strategy you can turn your Oklahoma Fishing trips into Oklahoma catching trips.
In my next video, I will show you the next step and this will be how to use ODWC interactive map as well as move these waypoints to your locator. This can be used anywhere in the world with similar results. I hope you try my method How to find fishing spots with Google Earth Pro and the Navionics web app. This video originally appeared on my YouTube channel.
