Navionics or Lake Master


Fishing_Novice

Question

First time posting long time reader.

My question is, I will be heading to Lake of the Woods May 31st. for a week.We will be staying at Long Point Resort. It will be my first time there and I was going to purchase chip for my GPS. I already have the MN Lake Master chip but it does not include Lake of the Woods.What chip should I get,Navionics or Lake Master?

Thanks in advance for the info.

Scott from Elk River,MN

Check out the new Navionics "LOTW+2K" chip. It has 1' contours for the US side of LOTW, chart data for the Canadian side of LOTW, 34 other northern MN lakes in high-definition, and nearly 2,000 other MN lakes, among other things...

Thanks for the info guys, I will check out that Navionics.

I don't know where we will be fishing that week.But I do know we will have a lot of fun. There will be about 16 of us and some of them fish LOTW every year.Do you have any spots you would recommend around Long Point?

Do either of these brands still have the CD (disc) to load maps into my 1995 Eagle Ultramap/GPS locator? I looked at Gander and they didn't have them.

      End of April is my guess for lakes along the I90 corridor.

      Great.  Have to swing by soon to see what they have, then over to Petti Bros for some jerky and sticks!

      Great news. They opened last Wednesday. Sounds like it’s about twice as big. Looking forward to checking it out soon.

      Last weekend I was monitoring a bay on Tonka whether people were still driving out. I saw 6-7 vehicles. In one spot there were 4 trucks with 3 wheel houses. One of the houses was 20 ft+. On Sunday I arrived to see the sheriff put up a thin ice sign that 6 vehicles had driven past.   I returned to fish it last Wednesday late afternoon with 4 vehicles already out. Drove to the spot I fished 2 other times in the last month and drilled the first hole. LiveScope showed the fish 30-50 feet away. Drilled a cluster of 5 holes in that spot and game on. It was almost as fast as you could put your line down. A lot of up bites. After it slowed down on the small jigging spoon, I switched to a 4mm tungsten jig and caught more. The fish shifted 10 feet away once where one of the other holes was and then went back to the initial hole. For crappie, I ended up with a 13, a couple 12s, couple 11s, three 10s and a handful of 9s. Also 4 bluegill either side of 8” plus several smaller of both species. All fish were released. The pictures I posted are the 13 with me, both 12s an 11 and a dink. I measured them on a Li’l Dipper which is accurate from the middle of the hole at the top of the handle. I am going to order a Ketch board. The rod for the tungsten jig is a Tickle Stick and for the spoon a Panfish Sweetheart.   All three times I’ve fish this spot the big fish move out about 60-90 minutes before dark. I suppose they are moving to a different area (weedline?) to feed. If I get out to this spot again this year I’ll try and figure out where. When I drove off the bay there were still 6 other vehicles out.

      Yup. Bullseye on the Ricochet . Bit o simple St Pats humor as that’s how I live n guess this flows thru my fingers.   Always interesting to see how close guesses are here.   where my island is clears out before the bay n large sections of lake so that is fun also. In past a few times last 28 years I hit it right on. Silly icy fun Big Smiles n Keep on Rocken! T
