Take a hand held compass the next time out, time how long he travels in one direction then mark, again when he moves how far he goes in one direction. Just ask him how fast the boat goes, you be right on top in no time!

or do what a couple of fellows I met did, they took a portable hand held GPS with them and kept it in their tackle box, marked way points on it.
I would be discreet with that though, with some guys you could become chum

When I go with a guide, I take my handheld GPS in my daypack. When we catch a fish, I gotta take a picture, so I go get my camera out (clicking my waypoint) and take a picture of the fish. I don't abuse the guide, but it gives me good information.

We go with this cap'n a lot, so I don't want to abuse him.
He knows all the best spots, so we always catch something. Like I said previously, from conversations and clues, I have deciphered the area, and now that I look at my charts and site maps, it all comes together. MJ, being an old Boy Scout, I was able to estimate compass direction using the sun as a compass and I did time the distances. The area is public knowledge, so if you look at the Delaware reef guide at site #11, it all makes sense. http://www.dnrec.state.de.us/fw/2005reefguide.pdf
