Does anyone know if it is worth the extra money for the insight on HDS Units, if you are only fishing oroville, shasta and clearlake
thanks

Clear Lake is the only one of your targets on the Insight list. I would say skip it and buy the Navionics chip. All three of those lakes are High definition on the '08 and '09 premium versions (one foot contours). You can save a ton of money finding a discounted '08 version but Navionics will only give you the rebate if you pay full retail. Can you say price fixing? Not sure if they are 3D on the platinum. They are HD on the platinum but may not be 3D.

The insight map for shasta was better than i had thought it would be. Pretty close to the Nav chip but has way more mountain terrain and surrounding areas. Go anywhere that sells them and take at look at the map and judge for yourself.
