the fish waypoint markers are on the list on mine, appropriately enough right between the 'fast food' and 'fitness center' - their called 'fishing areas' on mine.
Bigredonice, Thanks for the reply. After I posted this, while I was waiting to pick up my wife at work I got deeper into the unit and found the right page. I am a new GPS user and love it so far. It helped me find a new deer stand I put in for my wife in a new woods at 6 AM yesterday. Can't wait to get it on the ice. Thanks again

Hi Water Wolf:
  I too have been looking at this GPS thing for about a yr and a half now and it's a tough decision. One decision I have come to is-if you want maps ,then pick them out first. I've found a lot of maps don't show much detail up here in Sask. I think the best I've seen are the "Freedom" maps on flash cards for the Lorance ifinder series. I think they have a topo series out now-very pricey.

Same prob in southern Alberta in the smaller reservoirs. To solve this problem I contacted Alberta water management and got some maps off of them. I then searched the net for info on making my own maps for my legend gps. Check out www.keenpeople.com and see if this is something that might work for you.
