Default RE: Locating the public reefs

Thanks a lot for the help, I saved that spreadsheet of numbers and even was able to do some formula crunching and calculated the distancesfrom the pass so you can get an instant idea of how close/far the run is.

I got the numbers off of one of those captain seagull's charts so I don't think they are converted LORAN numbers but thats good to keep in mind. Thanks again guys!

You might try resetting the GPS unit. If you've had a power interruption sometimes they just fart.

The OLE Where Is It?

I know this is going to sound as if I'm being a smart azz , but I mean no harm at all. Maybe need to check the depth the sounder is set on. The sounder screen might not be set up to read the bottom at the depth you are fishing in. I know you said the bottom was flat looking and barane(sp) looking. One day I thought my bottom machine quit working , it was working fine, I just didn't have it set up to read the depth I was in. Say I was in 100ft. and the bottom machine was showing only down to say 60ft. Just a thought.:letsdrink
