    GPS MAP 78s

    Hi guys,

    I recently bought a Garmin GPS MAP 78s and am ashamed to say other than turning it on and seeing that it actually found where I was at the time, I really haven't had time until now to delve into all it's fine features.

    My question: Can anyone recommend any good sites for freeware maps of lakes? I figured I could do a google earth and get some general coordinates to put as waypoints on the lakes I fish and then mark them when I actually locate them on the lake, but it would be nice to have some specific maps without paying as much as I did for the unit.

    Suggestions welcomed and greatly appreciated.

    Da Bluejay-

    I myself don't know of any free maps but you can load the garmin maps into it. The 78's are a nice little handheld for marine and i know quit a few guys that carry them up here in Canada for back country fishing.
    Special thanks to my sponsors- Team Daiwa, Garmin Electronics, Gill Technical Fishing, Bass Magnet Lures, and Upper Canada Marine.
