When it comes to satellite imaging, there are a few different options out there. Mitch usually goes with the mobile app onX Hunt, because you can download your maps for use when cell service is unavailable. However, there are times when google earth will give you a better picture if you can pull it up.
Using a mapping application like FishSmart from Humminbird can be the perfect storm in conjunction with satellite imaging. The ability to cross-reference what you see on satellite imaging with what is on your map is beneficial. It usually gives you a better understanding of what you are looking at as a whole.
