    Default GPS Coordinates for bridge at La Cygne


    Good afternoon. Picked me up a new Humminbird toy that has side/down imaging. After spending close to 40 hours in the past week or so of reading up on settings and image interpretation, I am ready to hit the water and put my learning to the test to get familiar with settings to get the best images possible.

    Does anyone have the coordinates of the old bridge that they would be willing to share so I can start my adventure?

    Thanks!

    Chris

    Congratulations on your new toy. I have a Helix 5 DI but no side image or gps but still learning.
    I'm sure someone will help you out on the old bridge but wanted to mention a couple things I look at for lake structure.
    I look at old topo maps online or a topo app on my phone. They show roads, RR tracks and other possible structure that where there before the lakes. Also show outlines of where the lake currently is.
    That combined with a decent contour map you can usually pinpoint some places before you hit the water.
    Good luck and enjoy!

    I recommend you get an ac adapter and an in line fuse so you can run your unit at home... I don't know the lake your referring to.

    These are the coordinates I have from my unit. I don't believe they are 100% exact, but it's there. Can't miss it.
