[QUOTE="Wallijig, post: 351761, member: 6398"] Sorry was on my cell phone did not have photos available. Yes I am driving around on lakes recording sonar log, using that information to make maps with Insight Genesis programing. One of the lakes I mapped did not have any mapping available. it's one of my favorite walleye lakes as well for many others. Anyone can do this with Lowrance Elite series or HDS units. You can make maps now free and view them online, with subscribtion you can generate that map and install it on SD card for on Lowrance units. The equipment I used was Lowrance HDS7 with LSS2 structure scan. One does not need structure scan, however if one has downscan helps in the identification of bottom composition. Here's is a screen shot of one of the recording sessions I did. this one showing my trails where I drove around lake then you can see where I covered a bay area in multiple directions to get good contour and bottom composition readings. You can see red dot, which is showing me what my sonar showed in that particular spot view is to right of map. One can move it around on map to check specific areas..
