Anyone know if there's any links online to get depth charts of CT waters? I know I can buy the guide the DEEP puts out, but right now they're sold out and I would rather look for free anyway.

That doesn't show depth and contour lines, just what kinds of aquatic vegetation is in the place

That site links to some of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station (CAES) Invasive Aquatic Plant Program survey maps. Some of them have contour lines with depth markings. Here's a link to the actual CAES site:

Those are the best bathymetic maps for lakes and ponds in Connecticut that I've found for free online.

You know, you could always buy the Navionics app for your smartphone. Wink

Wow, Dawg, those are good maps! Very Happy

The Navionics app and maps work well on an iPhone and an iPad, Joe. I think that I paid only $9.99 for the iPhone app, but I was told that the iPad app costs more. However, it has maps for only larger bodies of water.

How good is the selection of lakes and ponds in the book the DEEP puts out? I really am trying to track down maps of the seymour reservoirs

The Navionics app doesn't include maps for the Seymour Reservoirs.
