Is LakeForkGuidelanes the same as Vick's Boatlanes?

No. Guidelines are waypoints to follow. Boatlanes are tracks to follow with hazard waypoints.

So does Fatheree's have trails or waypoints..Since most of my fishing is after dark Lance's chip has been priceless to me. His expanded version is awesome and much more content since version 1. Would like to get Stephen's card to compare

His are waypoints, put your heading line on and go waypoint to waypoint. I’ll take a picture and post it, give me a second

Thanks gentlemen, when designing Lake Fork Guide Lanes during the peak of the drought in 2012 I made sure to drop both the SRA waypoints and non SRA trail waypoints in-between choke point areas of Lake Forks submerged timber fields. The SRA waypoints are not at the exact location of the buoys, rather at the areas where the SRA buoys should be located at since the lake was over 7' below full pool when I meticulously mapped everything out. After turning on your marine units course/heading extension on this allows for you clearly see where you vessel is headed towards and easily drive from waypoint to waypoint. With passing time you will be creating you own trials over the waypoints which some anglers like. Making a navigational error between two waypoints is much better than making an error when passing directly past/over a waypoint on the non SRA trails. I hope this helps, good luck fishing my friends!
