Bottom Structure Guide. Helps to easily identify underwater features, drop-offs, and hidden locations
Decision Helper. Understanding the bottom structure gives more knowledge if your chosen water has potential for your target species and provides clear hints of what fish to expect.
Depth maps are great for fishing because they help find the best locations to fish and target particular species based on depth and terrain. It's a must-have tool for any modern angler.
Colours indicate depth - from light blue (shallow) to dark blue (deep).
Contours with bigger spaces in between show a more gradual slope.
Contours that are closer to each other indicate steep slope of the terrain.
Depending on the season and fish type, you can have a pretty good idea where to catch fish on a particular lake.
Also known as underwater islands or sections of a lake bottom that rise gradually. These bottom structures tend to have certain types of fish all year long. Ideal for feeder anglers looking for "tables" to feed the fish properly
Rapid declines in depth. Steep drop offs, especially with some wrinkles, twists and curves are where fish tend to travel between deep and shallow waters. Drop-offs are also the main thing to look for when fishing for carp - as it's where carp can move up and down in the water.
Slowly declining lake areas, which then drop off into the depths. In larger lakes, they may seem like a bump in the bottom. Some lakes only have one or two shoal sites. Shoals tend to have thicker vegetation where insects and baitfish live, which larger fish feed on. "Pits" at the bottom (like tables but going down, not up) are a good place for bream/some whitefish
