Depth Range Shading

You can set color ranges on your map to show the water
depths where your target fish are currently biting. You can
set deeper ranges to monitor how quickly the bottom
depth changes within a specific depth range. You can
create up to ten depth ranges. For inland fishing, a
maximum of five depth ranges can help reduce map
clutter. The depth ranges apply to all charts and all bodies
of water.
Some Garmin LakeVü
charts have multiple depth range shading by default.
