Title: Lake maps
Post by: ice-PAC on Feb 06, 2015, 10:36 AM

Does anyone know if any true lake maps exist for Deep Creek?  I have seen bathospheric maps but am having trouble finding a contor map.  Plenty of contour maps for around the lake can be found.  Last winter I had bookmarked a website that had a link to a contour/lake map but can no longer find the website.

This is a very useful site.  I have the app on my phone too.  Even more useful once your on the map.

Agree. You can scroll around & zoom in. I take a screen shot & print it out when I go. Almost makes me want to get a smart phone just for the navionics app.    :)

Awesome stuff.  Has anyone tried the SonarPhone/fishfinder feature?  Can't really figure out exactly what it does from the description.

Hi, I have to questions, does the app show your current location and how much it is after trial?

The app shows your current location  and will show direction of travel while navigation to a waypoint.

The app is 10 bucks it will be the best 10 buck you spend for fishing.  DCL has a decent amount of contour info on it.

hess is absolutely correct about this being the best 10 bucks you spend.  I have had it now for 3 years and I use it everywhere, DCL, Lake Champlain, Lake Anna, Potomac River; and you can get routine updates, I believe that feature costs an extra few bucks, but I get updates all the time.  I have it on both my iPad and iPhone, I prep with the iPad and carry the iPhone right out on the ice and walk right to my spots.  Sweeeet.
