This lake isn't covered by navionics unfortunately.

And even with the setup, my electronics aren't compatible with the app.

Contact RIRockhound (Bryan O), he is our resident Geologist. He may have some ideas. Of course you can always contact your state Fish and Wildlife agency which could already have some data.

The DEC doesn't have anything as usual, they are picky around here on what they want to map.

Zeal - is it a private or public body of water? Reason I ask is maybe a local college or university has an Environmental Sciences/Fisheries program where graduate degree candidates can study a body of water. They did this in Rhode Island and I have a book that was created of bodies of water, contour maps, oxygen levels, types of life, etc. Would make a great research project for a student.

It's public and an old lake at that too which is why I'm surprised at the lack of any kind of a map for this one. However, it is vastly overshadowed by 2 famous lakes, 1 of which is literally 3 minutes away and has had a lot of research done.

What electronics do you have? Some Raymarine units allows you to do your own mapping.

Checked local library?

Humminbird.

I'll give the library a shot but what to look for there?
