Harbor One ramp scares me, always has, not only is it steep but when the water is down, if you have a big boat, you have very little room to maneuver on and off the trailer.

Augies is pretty steep also and parking is horrible.

I fish out of Lakeview, the ramp closest to the gas pump is not as steep, just don't get too far over because you will have issues. I personally think it is the best on the lake but never launched at West Bay, that is a LONG way around the lake.

july 4th at west bay was crazy. the ramp was kinda slippery , becareful. only suggestion has been mentioned above . try 1st gear, also heard of people putting bags of concrete in the truck bed to get some traction .


If I'm lucky I'll die with a 7' spinning rod in my hand.

May try Lakeview again. I was on the gas pump side. Maybe just really wet and junk washing up due to traffic from the July 4th. I'll bring a tow strap just in case. Maybe someone could help if I really needed it.

I put in at lakeview 10+ times a month and have never had a problem, 1/2 ton dodge and skeeter bass boat, and most of the time I use the ramp away from th e gas dock. If you have any problems call Josh and he will be glad to help you out. GOOG LUCK

Creek Harbor Camp is not bad. $5 at least last winter. TPWD says 2 lane but it is not.

Harbor One ($15) is WAY to Steep. Its made for launching sailboats that draft way too much water. West Bay ($5) is a good ramp but is a little further of a drive.

Your best bet without driving further or paying more is Lakeview. Of course I'm partial ot Eagle Mountain Marina ($15 lauderdales) because I get free launches out there.
