GPS on the fishfinder. Multiple mapping apps on my phone with a charging cable and battery backup. Old school compass. Trust your gear not your ear. Too many times I've gone in circles in the fog.

Make sure you trust your GPS on the fish finder and follow it even if it feels counterintuitive. I also have coordinates saved as "launch spot" both on my GPS enabled radio and fish finder. In addition, I record each trip with my Suunto GPS watch and it will direct me to the starting point if needed. Lastly, there are apps on phone. If there's sun, that also a good indicator, even in thick fog you can usually tell position of the sun. I've been in thick fog at PC fairly close to the rock and you would think it would be easy to orient by surf and bird sounds but they appear to come from all directions. It's very disorienting so trust technology.
