Garmin U.S. Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots West Version 5 is ideal for fishing, recreational boating or camping, and contains extensive lake coverage throughout the Western U.S.
Garmin has simplified the way anglers purchase and use these maps. This product is offered on both CD-ROM or pre-programmed Garmin data cards, and all lakes are already unlocked, making it easy to use. The CD-ROM version includes both U.S. Recreational Lakes and Fishing Hot Spots maps for the Western region, while the data card version offers regional Fishing Hot Spots maps only.
U.S. Recreational Lakes maps are perfect for boaters and anglers venturing into smaller lakes, while Fishing Hot Spots maps provide extensive lake detail for fishermen. No wonder the nation’s top professional anglers on the 2004-2005 Wal-Mart FLW Tour will be using Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots on Garmin electronics to help them get the clearest view of the waters they’re fishing.
