I have been using a Garmin GPS 72 unit for a couple of years and been very, very happy with it. It doesn't, however, have the ability to load maps onto it.
Now...if I were to take the next step and get a unit that is compatible with the Lakemaster chip, it sounds like most of you would recommend one of the Lowrance units. That makes me wonder....are they truly superior to the Garmin units like the GPS Map76 which also appears to accept Lakemaster chips??
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
