Priority1 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Zero in on certain areas and do some screen shots with your PCs Print Screen Key. You can then turn them into JPEG format and save. Here's an example of the lower part of the two bays. It's all right here. 14913 is it's # Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelsanders Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 My eagle fish finder has a lake maps chip in it and i can sit in my boat and zero in on things[just a lil bit cold out in the pole barn]love the gps fish finder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priority1 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The GPSs with the maps are nice. I'll break down and buy one if my old LMS-350 Lowrance ever dies. It's about 15 yo. I kind of like old things also. I got my boat with it on it, and I'm just curious to see how long it will last. I have the old style antenna module up on the hardtop, and it has never lost signal as long as I have had it. Charts are nice to plan with.

Boltman Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Well I have a C-80 Chartplotter on board the boat, but it's a little cold out right now to sit on it and play, plus it's at a Fair grounds where I store it so it's about a 10 mile drive there. Yes they are so Nice to have onbloard the boat, I cannot zero in on the bottom though, but I am planning on getting a Fish Finder hooked up to it, so I can at least see if the Kings are down there, under the boat....Someday.........its' expensive.

2UNREEL Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you can pop in a lakemaster chip in your chartplotter its well worth it. The depth contours can clue you into where the big boys swim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
