I know navioncs and lake master are the go to maps. But does anybody use the maps on a Lowrance unit? It looks very detailed but I don’t know about dependable it is. What are you thoughts.

I do not see as detailed contours on the lowrance maps.
Some times show more of the ramps, submerged timber, creek channels, submerged roads.

I've learned 2 things since I bought my new Ranger with Lowrance electronics. #1 lake master is much better than navionics and #2 you can't use lake master in a Lowrance so I should have bought Hummingbird!!!

Having the best Contour Map available is a must for both Lowrance and Humminbirds. Let me add the 20 best fishing areas to that depth finder with my GPS Contour Chip. These are the lakes that I have Chips for:

Stillhouse - Texoma - Belton - Lewisville - Hubbard Creek - Cypress Springs - Grapevine - Ray Roberts - Granbury - Bridgeport - Sam Rayburn - Whitney - Waco - Cedar Creek - R. Chambers - Fork - Eagle Mountain- Buchanan - Toledo Bend - Ray Hubbard - Conroe - Alan Henry - Amistad - LBJ - Travis - Palestin - Ivie.


Each person you work with holds some promise to your future success.

Lowrance came on the skeeter. Had Humminbird on my old skeeter. So far it’s okay. More user friendly than my older humi. Not brand bashing just asking about the installed maps.
