Maps - does your map show your correct location?

Lures & Tours prides itself in posting your location correctly on dedicated maps utilizing GPS co-ordinates, and satellite imaging to pinpoint precise locations.

This year, Lures ad Tours is rolling out new dedicated maps co-ordinated with Google maps, which contain icons showing the kind of information anglers need and use.

Charlie Ross, Lures & Tours Graphic Design Director, added the locations to the Lures & Tours dedicated Ontario Fishing Tourism Map, then embedded the Barrie Fall Fishing Festival area map section within the Barrie Fall Fishing Festival Page on Lures & Tours,as shown in the screen shot below.
