I keep hearing a lot of people talking about apps on their smart phones with lake map features and I'm curious if anyone on here uses them and if they are any good. I have an Iphone and I don't know if that makes a difference on the aps.

I use the navionics app... was very pleased at first.

But my last trip out it would only zoom into one inch = 174ft

That was unacceptable in my books. I have been able to zoom into one inch = 24ft on several occasions.

So I used to be pleased. But not so much anymore..

I downloaded the free app and I can only zoom to 137' no too impressed

I also have the navionics app. I have not used it lately but was very pleased before.

I contacted Navionics about what you guys said about only getting to zoom into 177'.

Thank you for your inquiry. The limit of lowest zoom scale is due to the best resolution available in our chart information and to prevent pixilation of the images and chart details. GPS accuracy would also be compromised if you were able to zoom in too close.

seems like a bunk answer on their end....

my pixel resolution or whatever they call it was pretty darn good when it zoomed into 34ft. wink

Think they had something EPIC that is now turning sour... major bummer. That app was very sweet

I downloaded the free app and I can tell I can't save points but I'm going to try it out this weekend to find a key spot that I want to set up on. See if its accurate or a waste of 10 bucks.

      My 30 year-old Indy 500 (over 8,000 miles) has been having a mid-range bog for many years now.  It is worse on warm days and when the engine is warmer.  The sled runs fine up to about 1/4 throttle, then runs extremely rich up to 3/4 throttle.  The spark plugs are dark brown (better brown than down?) but not saturated.  8 years ago I moved the clips on the jet needles from the 3rd to the 2nd groove to lean the mixture and it helped for a while.   Should I move the clips to the top groove (temporary solution)? Could the jet needles, needle jets, and/or the main jets be warn and need replacement?   Don't think I will have time to tear the carbs apart this season for a rebuild so I may just band-aid the problem.

      I think that Mike89 picked April 26 two hours before you, jparrucci.  Is that correct Mike89?

      My last hide I gave to my Taxidermist friend to make what ever he liked out of it.   I've got a few fun Bear hunt stories to be told.  All 3 of us our first year stupidly tracking a blood trail in the dark together and getting lost, luckily smelled the bait making circles and got out. 🫣 Flash lights dying, deep in a swamp following a blood trail in the dark, the one who stayed at the bait called us back in!  We learned our second bear! Lol. 😞  Downing a wounded charging bear with the last bullet when tracking, no lie! 😬    Have had my fun!  🥳

      I remember that kegel… stuff….!   just finished my post work latte as a matter of fact!  Only the second case of those I’ve ever bought.     I’d get Mike something better.

      application has been submitted. 👍   Leech......i've shot my share of bear......it be nice to get another but not the end of the world if i dont. i get to spend time with my son...its just another way to get into the woods. i've been at it since about 1976......that rush when you walk up to the bait and see the logs scattered all over and bait gone just doesnt get old for me.   i had to get rid of 1 rug because of bad tanning. i have another rug, shoulder mount and made 3 pillows from 2 different bear hides. my biggest issue has become what to do with the hide....that seems more of a trophy then the meat. i inquired 1 year at the Alex decoy show when there were a couple hide guys there and they didnt seem to interested. 🙄 i have no other ideas for the hide.......approval from the wife is not even negotiable!!!!!

      aw that date is fine and maybe someday we will have beer!!!

      Something in May, like around Opener.  Could be white knuckles for boaters that weekend with the way things stalled out since the contest started and how thick it still is.   Highs in the 50’s coming but lows are around freezing and not a lot of wind in the extended forecast.   I’ll tell  ya what, if you change from 4/26 and it hits that date, I’ll buy ya some mythical FM beer.  And you know where you can find it. 😉. But don’t change on my account - this is still a free country!

      I caught the 10pm news the other night. They said that starting next week Minnesota will be above average for temps. I give them a 33% chance of getting that right.
