Fishing Hot Spots® sets the standard for others to follow. Each map is thoroughly researched, the information verified
and cartography done digitally, with the most current and accurate GIS tools, to ensure an easy-to-read, accurate and
affordable map. It's the map successful anglers have asked for by name for more than two decades.
Our maps come in a variety of sizes and formats. Each body of water is carefully scrutinized and input is gathered
from local experts and consumers as to what needs to be part of the product. Based on the intelligence gained at that
stage of development, the FHS R&D staff and marketing department determine which format is best for the body of
water.
By and large, each body of water is only available in one format, with the exception of our "Handy-View" maps. This
means an "L" or "M" series map is not also available in an "S" series map.
Below you will find brief overviews of the features and benefits to each of our map formats.
