Online Lake Maps

[WillyBWright]

I just got back from the local Farm & Barn and I saw lake maps offered online. You get a credit-type card, it cost's $19.95, and you can print any number of lake maps right on your printer. Anyone try this? Do they have a reasonably comprehensive list of lakes? I looked at the website and don't see much specific about lake maps. And the online price is $14.95. What's up with that?<br /> http://www.mapcard.com/

Anybody got anything that shows the depth(s) of rivers?<br />It looks like I'm going to be a river boater.

Jimbo, your signature says you're from Lake County Illinois. If you're going to boat the Chain, it's pretty easy to find maps of all those waterways. Here's one. And another. <br /><br />Here's a few other links:<br /> Chicago Area Waterways for Fishing <br /> Lake Link <br /> I Fish Illinois

Check the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for lakes in your state or the state of interest. They often have lake maps but fish content, stocking records, lake data, and a host of other details.
