I use the Navionics boating App on my phone. I have been useing that soley for ice fishing the last three years. This year I updated it and all the contours changed. Specifically a certain spot I fished at pineview showed a countour change before and that's why we fished there. Now after the update there's no contour change. They must have told the fish too because they weren't there this year either.
also you have to ignore the depths that it says on it. I had never fished from the North east boat ramp at Mantua before. The app shows a big hole just south of the boat ramp. The app says 30+ ft deep. The helix says 11 ft. I moved around a bunch and couldn't get any big variance to prove there was a hole there. So I can't really say how accurate it is. But one thing I do like about it is you can mark your spot and go there again next time. That's the biggest deal for me.
I am up in Farr West. If you'd like to see the app I'd gladly show it to you. Even with the changing contours I still like it alot and think it's worth paying for.
