I was fishing an area this morning - GPS stopped working, I went all over the lake and the cursor stayed put.
What is the best way to approach this.
I turned the unit off...restarted (a couple times), cleared the cursor and still showed me in the same spot that I had left two hours earlier.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

There is a sub menu that lets you see the satellites around you, go here tell it to search, if no sats are returned, the module went out. Work with Lowrance to replace the unit if under warranty. If out of warranty, but a point-one antennae, about 300 for the setup, this will fix it instantly and give you the most accurate location services possible with your graph. Super easy to install.

Did you try restore cursor? Should be at the top right hand of the screen if you have a touch model.

yep tried that - tried a soft reset.
I am going for the 1 antenna - after reading about this more and the speed of the puck its a no brainer.

Go into Setting->Network->Data Sources, select GPS & check what GPS antenna is selected.
