once again google is your friend.


topo maps - Google Search


i'd go with the us geological maps. in the smallest or rather the largest they sell. they are worth the money. you'll have to go to their site and pick out the section/s where the lake is to see how many maps it takes to get the whole lake. if you do that lay them out on a floor and "mesh" them together and find the lakes normal pool. mark that pool level out on the maps. inside that will be your lake. then you can get the points, sunken islands, cemeteries, house places, etc and find out if they are within the depth you will be looking for fish. they are magnets for fish if the depth is right. i always look for places from 40 to 50 ft deep to normal pool level and go from there. there are much more detail on those than on your "lake" maps you buy at marinas.


i think the maps for norfork lake took 26 maps for the whole lake but they were cheaper back then. i think 1.25 a map.

USGS - Topographic Maps


these are the maps i'm talking about. it looks like you'll have to register and log in to do the search for the maps you want and to find out how much they cost. been years since i bought any.

Thanks for the info but what I had in mind was the actual map of the lake already drawn out with creeks, hills, and dropoff, etc. But if there is not one then I will make my own.

you do as i said and draw the outline of the lake on the map and you'll have it all right there in front of you. most of what you'll be interested in is from 40 ft deep up. you could even draw that line on the map and remember the sunken islands that could be out in the lake. order the index map for the area you are wanting then get the maps you need from that.
