Is there a yearly fee with the navionics? I saw that on one of the reviews.
10$ per year for premium! But you can download all the maps in your fishing area and keep them on your device! As with your hotspots you saved! You just won't be able to update your maps, and get new maps after your year has expired.
I'm thinking about the Aqua maps app for my state, but I've heard they aren't very accurate. but at the same time navionics only has about half of the lakes I fish the most.
I've used this app for a couple of years in Maine. Much for the same reason as you indicated; it's the only one with the lakes I fish the most. Overall I've been very happy with the app. It has lots of good features once you figure out the instructions. Accuracy has a couple of aspects. Your location on the lake map is very dependent on the accuracy of the positioning system on your device. I use an external GPS/GLONASS receiver (Bad Elf [url][http://bad-elf.com//url] ) that improves accuracy and saves my phone battery. Accuracy of the GPS position will vary depending on things like the location of the lake, weather/clouds, etc. In the GPS world 5 to 10 feet is good.The other aspect of accuracy is the depth and contour lines on the maps. I find those vary by lake. Some are very accurate, some not so much. I find the contours are usually accurate, so I can find humps and drop offs easily. The actual depth vs the map depth can be off a good bit depending on the lake; again some spot on some not so much. I think the contours are far more important because we usually have a flasher of some other device to accurately measure depth.
