Does an old map of the Toledo Bend Reservoir exist showing all drainage lines and creeks serving the reservoir.
If such a map exists, where would I find one?
Thanks Friends.

I'd look for maps prior to 1966 or so

Most of the major mapcards have that. There is also a local that was selling cards with some points of interest like old foundations, railroad tacks, rode beds and drains.

Physical map?

I think Toledo Town's bait and conveyance store still sell these.

If you have a gps the map card will have the contour lines, creeks, old bridges marked for you.

If not that yellow map that Clyde posted has great info also. My buddy has that map (I think same one) and it’s pretty detailed.

Yes there are some maps, and things out there, have some myself. Truth is the lake has changed so much that 75% of the info on them is not whats out there today. Case and point as a kid i could dive and show you houses, grave yards, churchs, vehicles, etc. Now those same areas are silted over and no sign of anything ever being there. Lots of small drains and creeks are the same.
