Tery, I have the navionics and it is great. I dont know what other structure you need. Humps, river channels, points, contor lines.Mine has all the names of common places. You might try the lowrance hot spots, but it doesnt have as many lakes as the nav.

Yeah, Terry... Like you really need a good map on Texoma. You're pretty tough up here as it is! mark www.texomasportfishing.com

Yeah TJ...too hard to beet already. I thought I saw where the Navonics now has Texoma with the detail to 1' increments now. I don't have it yet, but maybe for Christmas. Maybe we can keep you looking at the map long enough that you will forget to fish

I have the Navionics Region 7 in my Lowrance 15mt. It hasn't helped me catch fish. Maybe I need the Hot Spots upgrade!

John,When we put the navionics on texoma all we got was the main river channel and how far from the dam we were at some spots???Also when you zoomed in the lines showing the river channel would go away..The map that was downloaded for free was a lot better,It showed depth lines and creek channels..We got it from academy.It was the one for 129.00...Thanks for your help.Terry Jackson

Mark.I can tell you that most of the fish we caught this year were caught because of information from you and others on this board and 6og..I remember asking Dwayne what was that wild looking lure he was pulling out and he said he read that Mark said to try it and that was all he needed.We caught a lot of fish on those roadrunners with the twister tails..Thanks again

TJ, the Navionics chip on my 15mt shows a great deal of detail at any zoom.
Submerged roads, the old town of Woodville, even fish attractors show up. Every lake I've had it on works well except that Lake Whitney is not on the chip I have.

I've got Fishing Hotspots Elite that shows 5 ft increments on Texoma. I just wish it had that detail on Whitney and some of the other TSA lakes. It shows all the lakes but no detail on some.

What Texoma map are you referring to that you downloaded that had better info?
I feel more like I do now than I did when I first got here!

Mark i knew i wasnt clear about that after i read it..The map that was downloaded was richland-chambers.As you know they make you buy the card to get texoma..I expected the card we bought to be the same as the downloaded as far as detail??I dont understand why the one we had was so void of detail..Im going to try another one and see what happens..Maybe cabelas sells them????Thanks for the help Terry Jackson

TJ lemmy know what you find out I am interested in a new chip too. I use Map Create 6 (should Cr@p create 6)I keep holding out because I want one with Texoma and Lewisville (among others RR GV etc..) Anyway I know how my electronics buying goes. I will get a new chip and within a month the Lewisville/Texoma super chip will be released!
I feel more like I do now than I did when I first got here!
