Fishing Points - Lake Maps

authentic rating

People value it as a cheap Navionics alternative after Garmin raised prices, it works for ice fishing and from a kayak and shows structure and currents. It breaks down on accuracy: depths off by several feet, GPS missing the mark, and some boats lose map detail after an update. Plus support does not reply and the one-time-versus-yearly purchases are murky.

About the rating

Reviews are concrete: depths off by several feet and even 3-5ft where it is 20, GPS off by a quarter mile and 80 yards, the paid upgrade fails to add promised detail, support does not answer emails. Five-star notes are specific about ice fishing and kayaks. The storeAvg 4.45 vs textAvg 3.2 gap comes from real accuracy problems, not faking.
