Fishfinder mapping chip - Jmorfish - 09-05-2016

Anyone have any experience using the chip by" Lake Insight Pro v16" ? Just bought it at Scheels, 100 bucks, haven't used it yet, but wondering if anyone has...supposed to cover over 100,000 inland lakes, all 48 states...tks for your thoughts...

Never mind --I just looked it up on their web site, and it doesn't cover Flaming Gorge, except shoreline only....and I definitely need it there....so it's going back to Scheels....

My HDS7 came with the Insight mapping software installed. It sucks. That's why I bought the Navionics chip. Way more detail on many more waters that I fish. I bought it when it was on sale a couple months back. I think it was $170 on sale, marked down from $200. Much happier with it than I was with the OEM crap.[/#][/font][/size]

you must have a Lowrance
I have a lake Master and Navionics chip
one in each humminbird fishfinder
both have their good points
what I like about the Lake master
Is I can color the water I want to fish in
Like if I'm fishing for lake trout If I think there on the bottom at 100'
I will color the 100' deep water green and just fish the green this helps me catch big lake trout.
