Pro Staff

An important part of creating a product that will be used all over the world, by many different people, in many situations, is receiving valuable feedback of its use "in the field" - or on the water in our case. Over the years we have developed a network of professional anglers, charter captains and guides who use, and rely on, Navionics products almost every day. Not only do they test our products, make suggestions for improvement, point out their concerns, they also educate others in its use, via seminars, trainings and conversations at the boat ramp and in the boat. Learn more about our Pro Staff and listen to what they have to say about Navionics.

"Ever since I started fishing with the assistance of Navionics mapping - I started winning. Navionics mapping allows me to find structural "spots on the spot" immediately - saving me precious time and fuel and most importantly, helping me catch more fish and cash bigger checks! In fact, Navionics mapping is just as important to my fishing success as any other piece of equipment or lure that I use."      -Tommy Skarlis

"It is almost unfair to have Navionics in your boat, because on any lake you go to, you will feel like a local. And it also improves your fishing on your home lake. If you think you know where everything is, the chips will show you that you don't. Navionics has helped me win over $250,000 last year alone. I could have not done that without my Navionics maps!"     -Ish Monroe

"I fish all over the southeast and the Gulf of Mexico competing in the FLW and SKA pro events in areas that I am not always familiar with most of the time. I rely on my Navionics charts to provide me with information for navigational aid and use the fishing data to provide me with details to find the winning fish."      -Conrad Lau

"I don't know how I ever did without  the Navionics charts. They make it so much easier when fishing a new lake for the first time."      -Judy Wong

"Navionics Platinum+ mapping always provides me the detail I need to locate salmon and tuna holding water. This translates directly into putting more fish in my boat on every trip. The Team Lowrance boat swears by Navionics mapping to put us on the fish."      -John Keizer

"I can truly say that Navionics maps are the best on the market. The definition and clarity of the maps along with the excellent attention to detail have increased my vision of the water below my boat. The PC App is amazing as it has cut my pre-fishing time considerately, being able to plan your attack from your laptop is amazing. As my dad has told me: "Plan your work, Work your plan". Navionics makes this system easier and has greatly increased my fishing success."     -Nick Barr

"Navionics has always offered the very best map chips in the industry.  I rely on my map chips every time my boat is on the water.  Whether I am guiding, fishing a tournament or just fishing for fun, I want to make the most of my time on the water. Navionics enables me to have very precise boat control and lure placement. They are a necessity for every serious angler."       -Adam Oberfoell

"Navionics electronic charts are an essential part of my arsenal when fishing tournaments across North America. They are also part of my everyday business chartering fishing trips on the Great Lakes. Navionics has been in my boat for the last eight years. They have made navigation on new bodies of water much safer and enjoyable, while at the same time the charts help me break down a body of water to key in on prime locations to target fish. The technology is the finest in the industry. I use the Navionics iPhone app religiously."     -Greg Yarbrough

"It's one thing to be good at reading and interpreting sonar equipment to find unusually great structure. But it is a whole different ballgame when your electronics "come alive" with the detail found in one of our Navionics charts.  With Navionics you'll be able to eliminate water faster and find more fish, just like the pros."      -Gene Ellison

"Navionics electronic charts are the most valuable tool in my fishing arsenal. Its' easy plug and play mapping saves me valuable time on the water finding the key spot that helps me produce quality catches."     -Christian Romans
