"These maps are pretty good when it comes to detail better than most I have 5 of them the only one thing I ever saw was were they left the rail road bridge that crosses Lake Lavon off by accident but besides that there pretty good to have and are really water proof and pretty tough. Just pricey but if you fish the same 5 lakes like we do every year through out the year they are very nice to have."
