Important Structure Missing From Off-The-Shelf Maps

It’s easy to show areas of lakes that are un-mapped and then demonstrate the power of a mapping software to add coverage. But what about those areas where existing map chips have coverage? Do we need programs like Insight Genesis to help us map lakes that already have a map? That depends on how important you think great maps with key fishing holding structures are.

We believe this is one of the most important keys to finding fish and making the most of your time on the water.  Let’s take a look at an existing off-the-shelf map for Upper Cullen Lake in Minnesota:

B.A.S.S. Nation Challenge ‘a fantastic program,’ Tournament Director says; $150,000 in prizes up for grabs

Although a B.A.S.S. Nation Central Divisional champion has already been crowned, anglers in that tournament got a head start in another competition – this one with $150,000 worth of prizes up for grabs – the Insight Genesis B.A.S.S. Nation Challenge.

Merge sonar logs from multiple trips for complete maps

To ensure quick uploads and prevent file corruption, makers of C-MAP Genesis custom lake maps you can record several smaller sonar-log files while on the water, then merge those logs later into a master lake map.
