{"product_id":"humminbird-lakemaster-vx-dakotas-nebraska-card","title":"Humminbird LakeMaster VX - Dakotas\/Nebraska Map Card","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThe Humminbird LakeMaster VX Dakotas\/Nebraska card loads detailed lake maps onto your HELIX, SOLIX, or APEX. You get VX map detail, customizable color palettes, Depth Highlight, Water Level Offset, and SmartStrike on select lakes. Slide the SD card in and your home water finally reads right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you chase walleye on Oahe, largemouth on the Nebraska sandpit lakes, or perch through the ice up in the Dakotas, this is the map card that turns your Humminbird into a real fishing tool. The LakeMaster VX Dakotas\/Nebraska card loads high-definition lake maps straight onto your HELIX, SOLIX, or APEX unit, so the water under your boat finally makes sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVX is the newest generation of Humminbird's LakeMaster mapping. What you get is cleaner map performance and customizable color palettes, so you can set the chart up to read the way your eyes like it. Bright and high-contrast for a sunny afternoon, or toned down so it doesn't blind you at first light. The contours are tight and detailed on the covered lakes, which is what actually matters when you're trying to sit on a breakline in 18 feet of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe features that earn their keep start with Depth Highlight. It lets you paint a specific depth range across the whole map, so if the fish are stacked on the 22 to 26 foot shelf, you can see every spot on the lake that holds that range at a glance. Shallow Water Highlight shades everything from 0 to 60 feet in red, which is a fast way to stay off the rocks when you're running an unfamiliar arm of the reservoir. Water Level Offset is the one a lot of Midwest anglers don't know they need. Our reservoirs swing hard through the season, and this lets you dial the contours and shorelines to the actual pool level so your map matches what the boat is floating on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the select HD lakes, you also get SmartStrike. You punch in the season, time of day, water temperature, and the species you're after, and the card highlights the water where those fish are most likely to be biting right now. It's not magic, but it's a smart starting point on a big unfamiliar body of water where you'd otherwise burn half the morning just idling around looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChart Presets let you save your favorite view setups and flip between them with a couple of taps, so your ice setup, your open-water trolling setup, and your shallow-water setup are all one button away. And if you're running One-Boat Network, the card feeds depth-contour data to a compatible trolling motor so it can follow a contour hands-free while you fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is the thing to check before you buy. This card works with HELIX G3 and G3N and anything newer, all SOLIX units, and all APEX units. If you've got an older HELIX G1 or G2, it won't read this card, so double-check your model first. It ships on an SD card that drops right into the map slot on your unit. No wiring, no install, just slide it in and it's ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the ice crowd, this card pairs naturally with a GPS ice setup. Having accurate contours under the auger means you can drill on the actual edge instead of guessing, and the Depth Highlight trick works just as well standing on two feet of ice as it does from the boat. Plenty of Dakota anglers run the same card year round for exactly that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne honest note. This is the standard VX version covering the Dakotas and Nebraska, not the VX Premium multi-region card. If you only fish this part of the country, the standard card is all you need and it'll save you money. Because it's mapping software, the sealed package can't be returned once it's opened, so make sure your unit is on the compatible list before you break the seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Anglers who fish the region enough that they're tired of running blind on base maps that don't show the detail. Tournament crews pre-fishing a new reservoir. Weekend anglers who want to find structure without spending the whole trip idling. On your home water, the jump to LakeMaster VX detail is the biggest upgrade you can make for the money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVX Technology mapping with customizable color palettes so you can tune the chart for bright sun or low light\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-definition depth contours on covered lakes for reading breaklines and structure at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDepth Highlight paints a chosen depth range across the whole map to find every spot holding your target zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShallow Water Highlight shades 0 to 60 feet in red to keep you off the rocks in unfamiliar water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWater Level Offset syncs contours and shorelines to the actual pool level of reservoirs that swing through the season\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmartStrike on select HD lakes highlights where fish are likely biting by season, time of day, temperature, and species\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChart Presets save and switch between custom view setups with a couple of taps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-Boat Network support feeds contour data to a compatible trolling motor for hands-free contour following\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCovers lakes and reservoirs across North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska on a single SD card\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with HELIX G3\/G3N and newer, all SOLIX, and all APEX units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShips on an SD card that drops into the map slot, no wiring or install needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Humminbird reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhich Humminbird units work with this card?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt works with HELIX G3 and G3N and anything newer, all SOLIX units, and all APEX units.
