Yep, that shows the bad and the worse. The Sabine River north of the lake was flooding and the lake itself was at a record level and rising. They didnt have an easy decision but it was stated that Toledo Bend was not created for flood control. The Sabine River south of the lake already had high water from the rains that we had all been experiencing. Once they opened the spillway gates, there was no chance that there would not be severe flooding down south. Its a really sad situation and a lot of people have lost everything they had.Jim EbarbMany, LA (Toledo Bend Lake)2004 Cougar/ 225 OptimaxHumminbird Helix 12 Chirp SI on BalzOut Mount at bowLowrance HDS 7 at bowHumminbird Helix 12 Mega SI on Ram Mount at ConsoleLowrance HDS 8 in dash at console
