Have any of you had problems with Navionics not being accurate on Twok?

My chip is pretty accurate on Tawakoni. I forget what year and model the chip is, and it's not 100% everywhere, but is pretty close for where I fish. But then again, I mainly follow my own icons to get on fishing holes then use the graph to see what's there.
Depths are all way off now with the lake being low.
If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space!

My Navionics chip does not outline the trees, when I am on Tawakoni I switch my Lowrance unit back to Lowrance to show the trees.

Water depth wasn't my issue cause I know the water is down, but around the dam it said there were humps that on sonar weren't there, or even anywhere around it.

I have both Navionics and Lakemaster, Navionics shows a lot of stuff on Tawakoni that isn't there.
Lakemaster is off on a lot of depth at Cooper as well as Tawakoni.

I think it is because those humps flatten out in the summer....better ask Superduck or Nitro. I heard one of them say it so I know it is true!!
Good Fishing To Ya, Ruben

Why would humps flatten out in the summer, that is, a 20 ft hump? Not that I don't believe it, but now I'm curious is to why.

Makes me wonder why we all spend so much on lake maps if they aren't accurate. Hazards such as trees are a major reason to buy them so you can avoid these areas.

these kind of gadgets make lakes seem small,... whatch out 'em fish you can swim but you can't hide... 
The pursuit (where are the fish), rigs design and setup, scouting, the awesome feeling of casting your rigs 100+ yards out, the total focus on the fish and the elements, the outdoors... the total exhaustion at the end of your fishing day,... the cooler full of fish to bring home... Yeah, I'm going to miss bank fishing!
