Re: Satellite imagery
I use MODIS most times but you need cloud free days to get images.
MODIS '-' Coastwatch Great Lakes Node

Yes I know the scoops were generous. My buddy paid for 4 dozen. We caught all our fish, and threw back a dozen smalls and a few sheephead, and froze 3.5 dozen still alive after our trip.
