Location: Racine, Wi | Sorry TJ, I'm not good enough to stay on the track. I only run a Crestliner with a set of 14' oars off of each side (yeah, their long, but I'm pretty long too, so it helps leverage everything out) so it gets tough following the same track every time.
On a more serious note, do you always fish a spot the same way? Jump on a trail and giddy up. Like Mike said, there could be a big pile of boulders on a rock bar that has smaller rocks on the rest of it, a patch of weeds on a sand flat, a rockpile within a weed flat, a sunken boat suspended 16' down over 30' of water (don't ask, but the spot puts out fish and my icon lets me know where it is on that flat)..... You get the point.
I'm sure the pros who are fishing for fish that have a much higher density in the waters can lay a waypoint on a spot as there are fish all over the place so they don't necessarily have to pay attention to every last detail in a weedline, however in musky fishing, those little details pay off in consistent fishing. Hopefully one day, I'll be able to create a trail on my GPS and follow it well enough to catch one or two more though.
