Put a navigation unit on the boat and forget the charts!
I use my knowledge of the lake and my eyes, my Bizer chart (that's what I started with), and then my GPS with a Winni Map.

My chart is always handy, but when I am in area I am not that familiar with, the chart is out and in plain view to be utilized. I then back up those observations with the GPS.

I heard a story quite a few years ago about someone running into an island (sober) and when the MP asked what happened, he said the island wasn't on his GPS map . Not sure it is true, but makes for a good story.
