MATS Map is Back!

(MATS = Madison Area Trout Streams)
Our beloved MATS map had seen over 30,000 views in the 18 months it existed when suddenly the fine folks at Google deleted it. No reason. No explanation. The MATS map was gone. SWTU member Pat Hasburgh had spent over 400 hours developing the map and was crestfa llen at the discovery. He spent hours on the phone with Google tech support and pored over countless online help forums in an effort to solve the problem but to no avail. The map was gone. The one last hope for the MATS map was that someone had copied the information so the map could be used offline. A call was put out to membership but as the weeks went on with no leads, things were looking grim. That is until our very own Tina Murray emerged with a copy of the map info saved on her computer and the MATS map has been restored! A very small amount of data was lost but will be added back in soon enough.

HUGE thanks to Tina for saving this wonderful resource for our club and the fishing community as a whole. We owe you one, Tina!
