Wondering if the FreedomMaps for Canada have enough detail to be usefull for fishing and how accurate are they. Thinking of the Lac Seul area in particular. cw

I can't answer for your area but I had the chance to test drive the Freedom Map for Saskatchewan and I would have to say it's the best map I've seen for this area.

I think you will be pleasantly suprised with the detail. I used it on Umfreville lake and found it amazingly accurate. A buddy is heading to Lac Suel next week and he just took my chip home to try in his unit before he purchases the chip.
I advised Lowrance to put some place on their web site to show the detail of these maps since I think it is better than most expect. There is of course no depth information on any of these maps but I don't consider that of much importance, that's why we have depth finders. Not to say it wouldn't be nice but not necessary.

Thanks for the replies, I ordered one today. Depth would be nice, but having reasonably accurate map is better than nothing. cw

I have that map and used it this spring on Wabigoon/Dinorwick. It was MUCH better than I anticipated. I wish too the depth was there but I found no spot that it showed me anywhere other than where I was (I think that makes sense).

What do these map have if they don't have the depths? Just the islands? What about underwater hazards? What is the cost? Where can you order them from?
