Look under the Chart tab in the HB main menu system for "Chart Detail Level" ...

Make sure this is set to "All" ..
----------

Also look at your lake here ... This webapp has the same detail that the latest Navionics cards have ...
http://navionics.com/en/webapp (http://navionics.com/en/webapp)

If your map card is older ... It is a known issue that Navionics has omitted a lot underwater structure detail in their newer cards because of some kind of conflict with some of their mapping data suppliers ...

What version is your card ... ??

There is a "nature of seabed" option that gives you an option to see things like creeks. I don't believe" all" turns that option on. Take a look anyway. Not sure if that helps the chip you have but it might. Bob

I found this ...:

What you may need to do is Restore the Defaults on the Unit and power off, when you power back on go to your Chart menu Tab and make sure that your Chart Detail Level is set to Custom and that your Spot Soundings are Visible. You will then go under your custom settings and if there is an option for your creek channels then you will need to make sure that it is on or either visible. If there isn’t a setting for this option then it may not be available on that card. At that point you may want to contact Navionics to actually see if Creek Channels would be covered.
