Online Water Depth Maps ~

[A-Jay]

Map 'study' especially on bigger water is a thing for me.

Not only saves a serious amount of time but can be 'helpful' in a couple of other different ways.

Prefer sites that are easy to navigate (OG) are fairly up to date and just as important, accurate.

Been using this one for a while now and it hasn't done me wrong yet.

Click the link below, zoom to a desired location, open the 'details' box for that body of water

and you are good to go.

If better than Navionics, I will give it a shot

Map study and Google earth are always great first steps for looking at a body of water. I’ve also found that it is helpful to revisit these sites often. Especially when the water level is changing. 
 

As more and more anglers are familiarizing themself with structure fishing, I’ve found that finding the little nuggets of structure that are either hard to find or overlooked can be productive. Sometimes anglers don’t even know that something that is structure…. Is structure

@LrgmouthShad it's the same map software with a little bit different UI.

 

 

Which is fine. Helps us trust the data.

54 yrs on Toledo Bend I still spend hrs on map study & out graphing.

 

When I catch fish in an area & before I leave, I idle over the area graphing it.

Thanks for posting, I like checking out new places

This shows parts of a lake I’ve never seen mapped. Not the whole thing but some

This deal is a rabbit hole I can fall into & get 'lost' in for H O U R S  . . . . .

Especially during hard water.

Ty.  In about 20 seconds I saw a road bed that I'd missed for years and my Garmin maps never mentioned
