<<FOUND>> GPS unit on Oneida Lake
« on: Jan 21, 2015, 07:37 PM »

I found a GPS unit on my way in off the lake this evening.  If it's your's shoot me a PM with a description of it and where you were on the lake.   

I posted this on the OL Diehards Thread earlier too.

Hope to get it back to it's owner.

Check the waypoints for a home or house. That's the first thing I do when I get a new gps, maybe you could go drop it off for them if they did that too.

Checked to see if there was anything that would help identify the owners but can't find any clues. Had a couple guys contact me but found this many miles from area they were asking about.

Refreshing to see honest stand up fisherman.
If fishing is a sport are we considered athletes?

Good News!

I got a PM last night from a gentleman on this site who knew of a buddy that had lost a GPS unit.  He identified the unit in great detail and will be returning it to him later this week. He was very happy to hear it was found and still in good condition.

Thanks everyone for helping to spread the word :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

RTX, you are to be commended.  Great of you.  BTW - did you get his "spots" off the unit?  If you want to share via PM that would be great -  ;D
