I just bought the Sam Rayburn one and it worked fine for me. One make sure it got loaded onto your SD card and two follow the instructions. When I saved it from the website I saved it on my desk top from there you will unzip the folder then store the un zipped metrix/ folder to the SD. Not the zipped one. Did you maybe forget to unzip it.

Verify that you placed the MATRIX folder on the SD and not the matrix.zip file. You should see a HB Track called Lake Fork Boatlanes under the 998's Waypoints, Routes and Tracks menu and if you do you will want to Edit that track and change the Track Characteristics to a solid bold line and the color of your choice(I chose red for visibility).

I've got one for a Lowrance and have switched to Humminbird. I would sell mine if they don't take trades. I will contact them and find out.
