Toledo Bend back in 74, had a Chrysler yes chrysler pro bass runner with a 115 merc. long shaft. Then it still had full grown trees about a foot above water and thousands about a foot under left from the old Sabine Forrest that was flooded. Stupid me and back then the locals or guides would't tell tourist that brought there own boats about the wisdom of if running wide open to navigate through the openings of the old logging roads that relly only they new. Hit a tree running about 40 and know the whole boat went airbourne. Luckily neither my buddy nor myself was injured and the boat held up pretty well. Hired a guide for the next 2 days though and he would fly in his old tunnel boat.
