Hitting Toledo in the morning for the first time to pre-fish for a tourney.
Is there anything I need to look out for safety wise. i.e. Is it safe to run in the channels. Are channels marked like Caddo? I will be launching out of Converse.
Any general information safety wise you could give me would be appreciated. I'm always a little nervous running these Louisiana/East TX lakes for the first time. Thanks.

Boat lanes are good now since the lake is up. Still drive around with caution.

Lanes around Converse should all be good but always keep an eye out for floaters. In general the further north you get the more questionable the boat lanes. Especially when the lake drops below 168.

The lake level is up...I live on the south end and the boat lanes are marked good...both Texas and La side...just watch for floaters, and hug the bouys since you don't know wide the lanes are...some are very narrow and some had plenty of room...on the south end atleast! I assume the north end is the same way also

Watch the east side of boones crossing the bouys are blown up into the timber. Stay on south side of them there.
