I've seen a couple posts lately regarding the list of lakes on the 2008 cards, since the regions are different than they are now.

Found a website with all of them on it.

Thanks Bill!

Hmmmm....no Ray Roberts or Lewisville?

Nope... I was about to buy a 2008 chip off someone, but now I'm unsure if I want to. Spend $75 more and get a lot more lakes that I fish regularly, but lose some of the features of the pre-2009 chips. What to do, what to do?

I've read it's a GIVE and TAKE situation on the pre-'09 Nav chips.

With the pre-'09's you get more upper creek arm and structure detail, though Navionics claims accuracy is suspect.

Also, the older Lowrance LCX's (26, 28, 37, and 38) will read the 3D functionality in the pre-'09 chips, but cannot read the 3D detail on the Platinum chips.

With the later model Nav chips, '09 & '10, you lose upper creek and structure detail, but gain considerable position accuracy and get more lake maps.

Iv'e been looking for an 09, 08 or 07 South SD chip with no luck. If anyone is out there with one they want to part with, pop me an e-mail at;

Been digging all the stores with no luck...

I don't think there is a South region in those years. Texas is broken into East and West I believe. Check the link above for the regions. I might be able to find you one. Let me know what region you want.

Bill,
I fish mostly in the West area. I run an Eagle brand GPS compatible with any Lowrance unit. SD chip. Any help would be appreciated!!

Bill,
That would be premimum.....not platinum

Ah ok. I think I remember someone trying to get rid of one. Let me see if I can't remember who it was.

the south and other premium cards are selling on EBay. I paid 92.00 for mine. I haven't received it yet just won auction on Saturday so should be here any day.
