Have not been there at all, I heard the lake was about 4 ft low,any ramps able to handle a 20' bass boat? Also got alot of time on my hands do to work, this lake is the closest to me so I guess i need to learn it while money is slow. I guess north end is outta the question, so if you guys have any thoughts please let me know. I know how some of you cats are, rest assure I'm by no means a tourny fisherman just looking for some bass and a lil fun. THANKS

Any of the ramps at the marinas will be good. The 66 ramp is probably getting pretty skinny. Dalrock will work but the ramp is really just junk. If you are going to stay down south, Chandlers is a good marina but will cost you $10 to launch I believe. Vehicle will be secure. Worth the piece of mind.

All the ramps should handle your boat the only questionable one would be 66. I havnt been fishing in a while so I dont have a clue as to where to start right now
I agree with you Mike Chandlers or Harbor Bay pay to launch but your windows will be intact when you get back

If I did not have to work I would love to tag along and we could do some bait testing. Maybe head towards the dam or where you see the birds working.

all the dalrock ramps should be good. Miller rd would be too low. The ramp off 66 is really low too. If you dont know the lake, I would launch off dalrock until the water comes back up.

Chandlers is good and safe! Drop your trolling motor in and start fishing!

I ran by there today at lunch and there were 3 trucks at Dalrock that had successfully launched. I didn't want to go back to work.
you know, nothing wrong with seven men who met on the internet going for a swim together

The ramps at Bass Pro Dr and Zion Rd should be fine also.

I use Dalrock all of the time. It does have some bad spots though. Stay on the side closest to the highway and you should be fine. I have gotten into the habit of watching my trailer fenders as I back into the water to make sure I'm not dropping off into a hole on one side or the other.

Yes that hole or rebare tore up one of my trailer tires the other day. I was on the lane closet to the highway and literally had to limp it up to the gas station on the corner of Dalrock. Had to take it of right in the parking lot and drive staight to NTB to have it replaced.
