There are other important Fishing Hotspot symbols that display infor-
mation only on your GPS unit. They are all accessed with the cursor
and either the

Wpt

or

Find

key. These symbols are usually (but not al-

ways) located near the dam site, and they include:

Fishing Tips & Techniques: the Waypoint Information screen
will display an article covering topics ranging from lures to

locations. Tackle hints, types of cover and presentation methods are
discussed by season and species, covering the major species in this lake.

Lake Profile: the screen will display an overview of the lake
itself, including information on size, depth, shoreline, bottom

composition, water source, water quality and fish cover.

Fishery: the screen will display information on the major species
present, their numbers and sizes, management practices, forage

species and any special regulations.

Fishing Area Information: this symbol appears in scattered
locations around certain lakes. When this symbol is selected, the

Waypoint Information screen will display specific fishing tips for that
area of the lake.

MapCreate lets you turn off the Master Map display of Map Category
Options, such as depth, fishing areas, lake info, lake services, naviga-
tion information, and structure, but this does not change the detail in
your IMS Fishing Hot Spots map.

Jeppesen Aviation Maps

In MapCreate, you can turn off the display of aviation Map Category
Options, but that does not change the detail in your Jeppesen and
Lowrance aeronautical databases.

The cursor in your AirMap

GPS receiver can select certain features —

such as airspaces — and you can display an Information Page for the
selected item. You won't get the same level of detail in MapCreate, but
some map items do display pop-up tool-tip boxes when selected by your
mouse pointer.

For example, move the Center Map or Zoom Area pointer just inside an
airspace line, and a pop-up box identifies the airport, the controlling
agency and the number of communication frequencies.
