Fishing an off-the-beaten-path
lake has it charms, right?

Like this: The lake is so unknown,
it’s never been charted.

Depths and contours
have to be guessed.

Wait a minute.

Would be nice if a chart were available.

Now one is.

LakeMaster, one of the largest
lake-charting companies,
is introducing AutoChart.

This product is so new
that LakeMaster introduced
it at ICAST, the International Convention of Allied
Sportfishing Trades, the
day this article was posted.

AutoChart enables anglers to
create their own underwater charts.

Though LakeMaster has long produced charts for many lakes,
charting every body of water was impossible for the company.

So LakeMaster came up with a way for anglers to map waters like favorite lakes and farm ponds.

AutoChart uses a digital card to produce the charts with LakeMaster-compatible Humminbird GPS electronics.

Two versions are available: AutoChart and, with more features,
AutoChart Pro.

Both include LakeMaster's previously introduced technology that can set a trolling motor to follow the chart’s contours with Minn Kota iPilot.

At press time, no information about AutoChart was available online from the company.
