Area maps?

Post by rgharris83 »

Any of you use a local map to fish our areas? I've always seen Florida Sportsmans map but had my doubts? I'm mostly looking for something to show me some detail of our local waters....

If not Garming bluechart software, West Marine has maps ~ $15.00 I think. I had to get two because the cutoff for E/W was right at the mouth of the St. Marks River.

I use

but the maptech site looks like I should investigate it a little further.
Thanks Chalk. :D

I like TOP SPOT map # N231 ( Panacea to Apalachee bay area on front, Steinhathee to Cedar Key on back)

then transfer important numbers or comments to my garmin chart plotter.
though blue chart waypoint manager.
and use google earth pro for sat images of areas and u can over lay waypoints, routes , and tracks on the sat image :thumbup: :smt004
