How do you get the photo onto your PC so you can add the lines then post the pic?

If your using FireFox you can just get an add-on like ScreenGrabber, that just saves a cropped area wherever you choose to save it.

Thanks y'all, I got it figured out. Here are the main spots I fish on Lake Waco. The first two are from the same ramp, one is north and one is south. The red "x" marks the ramp, the yellow lines mark areas I always fish and have caught fish.

North of ramp

South of same ramp

This are is at the north end of lake. A creek comes in in the upper left at the arrow and the river comes in at blue arrow.

Here is the lake I visit most. It is shore fishing only no live bait but nightcrawlers. A 1/8oz blue/black jig w/baby rage-tail craw worked well the little number of times I used one. Fished there for years but never used a jig till a couple months ago. Looking forward to this coming spring to see what the jig will do.

I was thinking the same thing, that area where it narrows out is around 12 feet deep the area marked is a weed bed. 1 foot shoreline then water is about 4 to 5 feet deep until dropping straight down to 12 feet. Does anybody think this 12 foot drop off would be a good place to drop shot and jig a spoon in the winter months? Nice looking lakes and ponds everyone, It would be neat to hook up and fish'em all.

I use Acme Mapper 2.0 because you can toggle between Map, Satellite, Hybrid, Terrain, Topo, DOQ, Nexrad & Mapnik.

I keep getting this error  ;)

Small neighborhood pond within walking distance from my house. The pond has lots of bowfin and bass. I have pulled out many 5+ fish. Biggest was 6+ out of the far right box. In between the two ponds there is a 3ft waterfall which is great for fly fishing!  The best fishing is found in the black boxes.  For a shallow lake (deepest spot 5ft), this lake holds some nice bass and giant bowfin.
