If you fish within 2 hours of DFW, how are the ramp conditions at your lake(s)? Her are mine.

Aquilla- low enough that I will not try without someone I know having used it within last week. I have Fished the lake for 11-12 years, 5 with a bass boat and never launched at this level. I launched 2 weeks ago and told myself "not until it is at least at this level again. The lake releases 3cfs pretty much every day at a minimum and I have not tried when at this level. I'm not a huge fan of beaching my boat on rocks. Ramp may be good for several more feet but again not a fan of the rocks I hit when beaching a 19' painted hull aluminum boat onto rocks.

Navarro mills- I always go to liberty hill because it is always open but only fished this lake for the last year. Ramp is wonky, the straight one had a detached courtesy dock early summer so I went back to the wonky ramp with the motion machine courtesy dock walkway. Seems fine just flat. First full year so I started at around this level -2', not sure but hope the park stays current on closure info just in case.

JP- Lake is low but north ramp at state park is good and courtesy docks very usable.

Pretty much all the major players out east are just fine with ramps just watch for timber.

I feel like the more east you go the better and west side of DFW much worse.

What are you guys seeing at your lakes?

Like I mentioned in the post, you can probably launch just fine at Aquilla but I do not when it is this low due to the rocks around the areas you have to beach at as of 2 weeks ago.

Grapevine is too low for me to run trips at the moment. Lewisville is even lower. Joe pool is ok and I caught them decently today. Ray Bob is probably ok. Lavon and Hubbard are very low as well. Just a low year.
