Can you run the boat lanes at fork safely with the water being this low?

I've been running all over the place. The only place I feel gets a little suspect is around the bottle neck running into Little Caney. But still pretty open to run in there. Main lanes are fine.

There are a few places that running Lance's chip will put you on the wrong side of the buoys (by 25 or more feet). Buoys can and do drift, GPS trails don't. The latest boatlanes pro has a lot of the hazards marked that people have reported over the years, including the tree that Cameron hit.

I ran from 154 bridge to Cheney Creek, and then up to Birch Creek and back to 154 last weekend and just idled if I was around any stumps I could visually see. I stayed with in a bout 50 yards or less of the marker bouys when i was on plane and had zero issues. I ran out of little Caney to the main lake my previous trip and it was a little scary but if you'll idle you'll be fine. If you are on the marker bouys running on plane shouldn't be a problem at all. There is one spot where the marker bouys can get a little confusing and you can run out of them if you aren't careful and that is right in the general area of a high line that crosses the lake on the west arm. I just had to slow down and look a little harder for the next one when I got there.

The Mustangs and Williams cross lanes are strange to follow, but the lanes are fine at this depth. It gets a little tight on one or two of the high humps that cross the lanes as the lake approaches 7 foot low.
