Uh huh, you just need to subtract a meter or two depending on the lake and they are still accurate though. Water levels have declined noticeably since the 70s when many of these surveys were conducted.

It is actually kind of funny because there are a couple lakes I go to that are shaped very different now because of the lower water levels. At first I was like no way this is the right mapuntil I looked close and realized that some sections just don't exist anymore because they used to be very shallow.
