    Did you guys order (or buy) a lake chip or are you using the pre-loaded maps? Which chip? Thanks.

    Of you just fish one lake or two you can download just the lake and put on a micro card. Cheaper that way.

    Mine came with a Navionics card in the bundle. I did run it on the stock maps one time and noticed that some one of the "warning" buoys was off by a good 60-75 yards.

    LakeMaster is the way to go. You can set what depths you want to classify as shallow, medium, etc with different colors, and you can get all the contours to adapt to the current lake elevation (in drought or in floods like now). And one foot contours make a world of difference. Definitely worth the $.
