I recently purchased a new 2009 North chip LAKE OF THE WOODS from navionics at Cabelas.I had a real early chip I think around 2001 and paid 300.00 and was really happy with it had all the reefs and hazards marked. I traded this chip in for the 50.00 rebate....BIG MISTAKE... Now for the chip.....Wow All those Depth contour lines look pretty .I personally think they clutter up the screen. I really don't care about those 20 and 30 foot reefs (not a walleye fisherman).I found several mistakes which included wrong color markers (north of Cyclone Island 3 red buoys and 1 green buoy this chip has 4 red buoys)Several reefs were removed and what really was maddening was some reefs were replaced with 18' contour lines, and it gets better NO red route lines.So any time I was traveling to new areas I had to re check with my map to make sure those 10 12 18 foot contours are not reefs.This felt like the old times driving with my map in my hand .I will contact navionics and ask them questions about these issues and if I can purchase my old chip back. I will add contour lines might be nice for my Fall fishing trips.
