Now is the perfect time to update your GenieLogs.com information. As the new season is starting, you are getting ready to put the fishing gear back into the vehicles and boats, take a couple of minutes and think back to all you did last year. What new waypoints or hotspots did you find? What was the hot bait? Buy any new equipment you should keep track of? I bet there is something from last year you still remember.  Get it organized now so the next time you go fishing it will be productive and fun.

Start with waypoints. These are valuable! For most of you, they represent something you can't see and maybe never be able to find again. They represent memories ... oh yeah AND FISH! Take some time now and backup the waypoints from your gps units and get them loaded into the Waypoint Management module for safe keeping. Whether you have a Lowrance, Humminbird, Garmin, or other top brand, GenieLogs can read them. Once in the system, you can organize, reflect, and prepare your waypoints without spending hours at your gps screen. Plus you can do this anywhere that has Internet access. Then simply load them back into your gps units and be ready to duplicate the success you had last year.

You may also want to take inventory of special items from your tow vehicle and boat and get them entered into GenieLogs. Use the Equipment Management module to keep all the serial numbers, make/model, etc. of your equipment so you have it just in case you need it. You can even take and store a picture with your equipment.

Every season brings new discoveries – new locations, new lakes, new hotspots, new baits. I bet you learned many things last year - and will learn this year - that you don't want to forget. Get that information logged into the Logbook Management module. It takes only a couple of minutes and it will be stored forever. You'll be able to access that information any time you need it and it won't get forgotten or lost.

Planning your tournament season already? Start organizing your tournaments in the Tournament Management module so you will always know what is happening and what you have time for. Again, it only takes a couple of minutes and it is permanently stored for you!

No matter what level you are at, it's a great idea to track your expenses, take this time to update the Money Management module with all your receipts. You can even scan your receipts and attach them right in the system. I promise the time spent will be worth it. At the click of a button, you will know exactly what happened to all your money. Tie it in with your tournaments and you will be able to see which series of tournaments treated you the best.

Don't get caught wishing you could remember the hotspot, bait, or lake. Don't wish ever again. GenieLogs.com has everything you need to keep you organized. Take this time now while it is fresh in your mind, boat, truck or wallet and get organized so every year you can Stop Wishin' And Get Fishin'. www.GenieLogs.com (http://www.genielogs.com)

I'm down with the stoppin' wishin' and gettin' fishin' for sure!!
