Hi just bought a boat that came with a Humminbird 798c SI. When I test drove the boat the original owner had a Navionics Hotmaps chip in the unit and it showed all the contours on the map. However he took the chip with him when he sold the boat to me.
So, yesterday I took the Lakemaster chip out of my Lowrance H2Oc handheld, popped it in the Humminbird and took the boat out for the first time. For some reason the Contours would not show up on the GPS...
Do I have to change the setting to allow it to display the Lakemaster or am I going to need to buy a Navionics hotmaps?

According to the Army Corp of Engineers weather station here in Waskish we have had a grand total of 1.29 inches of precipitation so far in 2018. When we were burning the grass of there was still about 30% snow cover. The flames were hitting 10 feet high.
Nice to see there might actually be some ice melting up that way!
jkrash, those are hooded mergansers though. I might’ve called out my first woodie sighting this year as one of those too. But nah! I know what I saw had to be woodie! Haha!
Seriously though, I’ve seen more, and more variety of ducks this spring than ever in my life. The late lake ice outs have made the river a diver Mecca. I think I saw a few with Ely or bust signs on em too!
The bulk of woodies have been in the Little Falls area for about a week, some for a couple. The hoodeds have been here for at least a month.
They’re all coming though!
