Is the ramp in good shape for a 2-wheel drive truck? I have never been. Is it pretty wide open, or is there some hazards?

I went weekend before last...is about 5-6 feet low, best I can tell. One thing i did notice...hug the left side (north) of the ramp....my trailer dropped off into a hole, washout or something on the right side.

Dead stick a weightless fluke under docks. Don't worry about how shallow some are.

You'll be fine. Lake I don't think the lake is 5 foot low... mabey three, but that puts 99% of the cattails on dry land... I went the other day and didn't do well. Caught a 6 on the dam a while back but that was it... Pray for rain

All good. Ramp is steep even when the lakes full. Pick the side where the people are not sitting in the middle of the ramp bank fishing and are not going to move...just sayn.
