Lowrance Update 25.1 Video and Description of Features

[justinp61]

Updated Pro12 and Live16 vis SD card. No issues with Live update. Pro gives updating message upon restart reported by others. Have restarted unit many times, but not been on the water.

By the way, will the follow contour work only with CMap? I run Navionics - it's better for most lakes in OH.

Probably beating a dead horse here, but Orbit function with Ghost ever gonna happen? Some reported it works on Recon, but I haven't heard anything definitive.

The notes specifically mention C-Map.

"Depth Routing:
Depth Routing is a new feature for Lowrance trolling motors. Depth Routing utilizes our CMAP charts to create dynamic routes on the fly to always keep the boat in a desired depth. By setting the upper and lower depth limit, the Lowrance display will find areas on the chart within these boundaries and continuously draw a route that the boat can follow. The trolling motor can navigate this route for you as you fish."

I guess the real question is will it work with Onboard CMap, or does it require a paid card/subscription.

I couldn't figure how to use the Depth Routing with the onboard CMap. Maybe someone can enlighten me on this one?

BTW, the improvement to Active Target Scout mode look fantastic. I could find every trout in the lake. Didn't notice as big a change on my AT2 in Forward View, but bass are hard to see anyway now as they are deep and belly to the bottom.

BTW, Marc I know you are probably getting bombarded with questions, but if you could do a video on the water with AT2 Scout mode improvements when you get a change, it would be very appreciated :).

Bombarded is putting it mildly...but hey, if it helps others out I am willing to do so. What I don't get is that although my videos on 25.1 have gone viral, very few people have hit the "like" button, and fewer have subscribed. I simply don't understand how people can take the time to get the help they need but can't take one second to hit the "like" button to help me keep putting in this work. Many of the questions are also answered in the videos, so some apparently didn't watch the video before asking questions. I lost a lot of fishing time and home time editing videos, so there is a lot of work involved, including answering questions. Thankfully people like you and some other BBCers show some appreciation, and I appreciate you!

But yes, next week I will video some AT footage, especially Scout mode as that is very impressive with this update.

I really should not post this screenshot as it was literally taken within seconds of turning on the unit. I after making adjustments the screen was miles better than ever before, I just didn't take any screenshots then. Next trip!25.1ScreenShot .jpg
