Making Maps in Google

I use Google Maps to create Maps of fishing areas I have been to and think could be useful in the future.

Create a google account and then you can create a map, by clicking on Maps and then My Maps.


Click Create New Map


Add a Title and description if you want. Then choose Public if you want everyone to see the contents of the map if found in google, else do Unlisted and only you can see it unless you directly send a link to it to another person

Click Done



Click My Map (or the name of what you called your map).


Click Edit



Use the tools based on the map to draw lines, (Circled in Red), to note areas you have picked or points on the map.

Click here to see a sample --> Sample Map (Click on the yellow area or fish symbol to see the text)
