Recommended Posts

Not a typo! Starting today (Sept 1, 2006), you can purchase a HotMaps Premium chart at your favorite retailer for $149 (Wade ), and receive a $50 check from Navionics!!! Your final cost? $99!!

If you have been waiting or considering lower cost mapping...No more excuses!! Visit your favorite retailer today and own Premium mapping at entry level pricing!

See here for program details and a downloadable rebate form (if your dealer is out) http://www.navionics.com/HotMapsRebate.asp

Here's the meat of the fine print. Purchase price paid must be $149 (or greater). Proof of purchase and upc from original packaging required. Trade ins are not allowed in conjuction with this program.

Thanks for Fishingminnesota's continued support!

Jeff,

That's a great deal for that chip.

If you fish a lot of different lakes, I can tell you that Navionics is definately the way to go. I recently fished Lake Michigan in WI, Rush Lake and Mille Lacs in Mn, and then the Canadian side of LOW. All of the lakes were contained on one chip. No need for different chips, no added costs, no switching out chips in my GPS.

Thanks to Navionics for now making it cheaper and easier for use smile.gif

Navionics makes an excellent chip. A lot of lakes on there, makes for scouting new lakes simple and easy, where other chips don't have maps for some of those particular lakes. I've been using the Navionics chip all open water and have no complaints.

I've got the Navionics Hotmaps Gold North as it was the only one that would work with my Humminbird 67. I put it in and I can get a fully detailed map of Clearwater Lake, which I never fish. But the lake I fish most, Sugar Lake, is non-existant. If I take the chip out, it's on the default map, but with no depths just an outline. Put the chip in and the outlines aren't even there. Just looks like "land". I'm not sure if this is normal or if Navionics has a fix for it or what. Any help?

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • 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. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
