Fishing Logs

Post by **jsuber** » January 21st, 2007, 8:50 pm

I made this PDf for a fishing log. Try it out and let me know how I can improve it. I may or may not use your suggestions. You can save it to your computer, and use over and over and save it as a date under a log folder. You can print them out and put in a notebook. Let me know what you think.

Very nice

Is there a way to store them on your computer and then search/sort based on different criteria?

You can store them on your computer, I recommend you save them by date like using the initials of the area, then the date like for the St Marks Lighthouse store it as SML01222007 then you can sort them in a file or save them in different folders under your logs. Now if you edit the email sending feature you can have the report send to you and you can use the XML files in your database software like Access to sort data.

Atticus,

if you store the log in a single folder with entries for each date/trip Windows Explore will allow you to do an advanced search on that folder and search for a word, phrase, etc.

You know, words like nothing, skunked, stuck and most importantly GROUNDED

Everyone should know that the key to consistency is a record, you can do it on a form, notebook or as most of us do on this forum and with mapsource.
