Hey guys I installed a new transducer today and need to check it out. I figured I'd combine a test run with a little sonar recording event.

I'll be on East Lake this Thursday May 5 at 9am. If you want to jump on my boat and see how I record and create charts this is your chance. You can also bring your boat and I'll show you how you can record logs and update your charts with your gear. Just PM me or text me at 613-848-4213 to make sure I still have room on my boat or to make sure your equipment can record logs.

Here is East Lake now.

Here are a few screen grabs of what I did this morning. Bear in mind these are just the rough mapping I did today. Navionics will process this data and clean up the charting. You will be able to see the updated charts on the "sonar chart" layer on the web app, mobile app, and on your chart plotter. It will take about a week for Navionics to process this data so give it a little time before you update your charts.

This is an overview of the south west end of the lake that I charted.

Here is a neat little shoal that I found that looks like a great piece of structure for walleye.

This break line on the south east side of the lake looks really interesting as well. It really needs a little more time with trails closer together to fully chart that break as the counters do swing in and out as you can see.

The lake still needs a bit of time but I was able to do all this in about an hour so you can see how easy and quick the mapping really is. Ive had a lot of interest via PM's for the charts on East Lake so I hope a few of you pick up where I left off and finish the charting. It would not take that long at all. If you have any questions stop by and see me this summer. I am on the water a lot during the day but usually in the office at West Lake Willows in the evenings. Feel free to swing in and we can chat about how to get the rest of the lake done.

Out of curiosity, are you creating these charts and automatically saving them to the card just by driving around the lake ? If so, didn't know you could do this.
