yeah what apb said about accuracy. The clearer the day and the more satelites you can pick up the more accurate the reading. It only takes three to triangulate your position but having four or five at your disposal is so much the better.

As far as your rock pile scenario, first off why are you giving away fishing spots? No, seriously though if you mark something with gps and you have a good quality signal both times you should be able to get within 5 feet of your spot every time. If you are within 5 feet nad going slow enough, assuming adequate depth of water, you should be able to see what you are after on with your fishfinder cone.

the gps forums dont give you much of a chance under 30 ft. locating a spot with cordinates using ideal conditions...

the reason I posted the question 5 of us sunk huge xmas trees and other structure, and did the best we could to pin point the location so when we were done each of us could give the other the best possible means of locating the structure........so with the flasher along with the gps info.........should be simple enough.........

the 2 we did the year before produced a lot of crappie
