I launched there Saturday afternoon. Still had about 4 feet of water on the concrete ramp. Road was nice and dusty and very wash boarded from the wind.

Make sure you trim your motor way up when you're pushing your boat back on the trailer. Or you'll have to file your prop a little like me.

None as of 8 days ago. $3 per person to launch. Dirty road, but shortens the ride to the mid-lake by a bunch.

Launched there three days ago looks to me like we might get a week or 10 more days before we have to use the bank around the corner.

I am staying In a rv at tiger and yes that graveL rocky road is a pain . the concrete ramp is closed but everyone is putting in on a gravel boat ramp . Just drive to the right of the concrete boat ramp and drive down to the water hope this helps.

Just drive to the right of the concrete boat ramp and drive down to the water hope this helps. We were there yesterday morning and I've got a question for ya. Did someone steal the "gravel boat ramp"?  All we found was sand and mud and if you weren't in the exact spot you had better have 4wheel drive. Ask me how I know.  At least I found out my 4wheel drive still works.
Like me for what I am, or don't like me at all.

We launched there several times last year when the water level was the same and never saw a gravel ramp. We just launched into the "canal" off the dirt and it was fine.
