I'm also curious about feedback on these mainly for Rayburn and Toledo. Can anyone offer any information good or bad?

Lance Vicks card is very good. I used it on Fork and running before daylight I got really close to a lot of the bouys. I would say it is dead on or as close as you are going to get.

I have the boat lanes card for Rayburn and Toledo and they work pefectly. Money well spent. Give Lance Vicks a call. They have a card that has Rayburn, Toledo and Fork on one card.

I believe if you do the download and save to a card is a bit cheaper

Yep, I bought mine that way.

Did yours add the waypoints or just put red stuff where there is timber? Buddy of mine got his last week and loaded it today. No new waypoints, just red lines, and those weren't even close to the boat lanes north of 147. I saw one loaded last year on an HDS and it added the waypoints.

The website said they had updated some data as not to clutter up the screen.

I just bought and loaded mine this week for Rayburn. It has 3 types of symbols. Icons for boat lanes. Icons for timber lines. Icons for idle only areas but are also boat lanes.

I've left two messages on the voice mail on the phone number listed on their website.

Nobody has called me back. I guess they don't like selling their products.

I tried to buy the three-lake package and it said it was unavailable for some reason...that's the reason I called.

If any of you Fork guys see Lance, please tell him I'm trying to give him some business and to give me a call so I can ask about the three-lake chip. If it's never going to be available again I will buy the Rayburn/Fork chip, but I would prefer the entire series.

Give him my number please...281-954-1820.

Thanks,
-Bryan

I ran into the same problem when emailing and calling, but I finally got ahold of him on the 2nd number on the website. He is one heck of a nice guy and spent the time on the phone with me to explain the product. I think he was on the boat fishing when I called him. This product is not his only source of income so I cant expect him to be johnny on the spot with returning answers. Downloaded mine yesterday and loading it today on the graph. I will let you know what I see after loading it.

Used mine on fork sat in fog and was nearly hitting bouys. You still have to use common sense off the main lake since it is down so much.
