Lake fork needs new buoys on the whole lake. I wish they would make them a different color because white is hard to see sometimes with a little chop on the water.

All those boat lanes on the chip are safe when the lakes are at full pool, as lakes drop you are running at your own risk. That bottleneck on the Little Caney run is a mega pucker factor for sure, if your not 100% certain just idle through there and the rest is easy money. I wonder when watching people run it if thy really know whats down there... BIG stumps and lots of em!

Lake fork needs new buoys on the whole lake. I wish they would make them a different color because white is hard to see sometimes with a little chop on the water. They are and when it's overcast too. The ones on Hawkins are orange and easy to see in any conditions but there are guide lines regarding the colors and markings on buoys so not sure what changes can be made. As far as running Little Caney I always run it between 3-5 MPH. A new SHO is too expensive. Cheaper to launch back there than to take a chance.

I ran up and back little caney today using the boatlanes coordinates. My first time up that way. There is at least one big stump that is right in the boatlanes path. It is a quarter of the way up little caney coming from the dam side. It is before the visible heavy timber. I'll try to pull coordinates and post. I have it roughly marked. Be very careful. I idled through the trees on the way back out. Once you see one major hazzard right on the path, makes you really second guess the accuracy.
PS: For the most part I really like the boatlanes product. That is the first real flaw I have noticed. In no way trying to bash their product. Probably is this one: 32 50.215 N, 95 33.236 W I think at one time it might have had a cone on it.

I've stated before but the BRA which controls Possum Kingdom has buoys that flash at night. They are the best markers I have ever seen. I wished Fork would take a look at doing something like that.

Use to catch a lot of fish up in Little Caney, but we stayed at Hideaway then. Live by LF Marina now. When we camped there, I never ran to the main lake cause it was a choice between fish where I was and maybe fish and a stump somewhere else. Thanks for the memories, thought I was gettin' senile.
