    Default Chart Select......A new Humminbird Mapping Option


    $10 a lake could add up.....but a LOT cheaper than a regional map card to a lake you are traveling to.

    Think lake prices vary. Lake Somerville TX. ~$20. Sam Rayburn ~$30. Others $10.

    Yep Steve, got excited until I saw I would have to buy new unit to use. Really cuts a lot of folks out of the picture real quick.

    These are Lakemaster Charts that you can buy and download BY LAKE to your Humminbird unit IF it is in the list of approved models. The cheapest is $9.95 and go up to $29,95 a lake (like Sam Rayburn!). I bought one to see the difference and will test it thoroughly when I get on the lake. It looks a bit different with the way the depths are marked so i will see if there is any big difference from the Navionics card I have of ALL the lakes.
    To download and use all you need is an SD card. Put it in your unit and go to settings and then "Encrypt Card". Once the card is encrypted, you go to the website and register, buy and download the maps to your encrypted card. This same card can be used to store your waypoints, tracks, routes, images, recordings, etc.
    Easy to do but is the price worth it?! Stay tuned!

    I don't have pics right now but I did check the map of the lake I downloaded and I did not see any discernible differences in the depth lines and overall look from Navionics maps. It just basically looks the same to me and I do not see the benefits of getting this unless you can't afford the Navionics card with ALL the lakes you want on it. If not then you have to buy each lake separately and that can add up. I will be sticking with my Navionics card for now.
