Does anyone know if Etollie and Ralph Mcalister Park or back open since the water is up ? Trying to find alternate launch sites for Mcdonalds, since I will be traveling from mid lake Toledo Bend every day, via Milan,Tx. my options or open.
Appreciate the advice, thanks.

Long Shot-Anybody have a private launch they would be willing to let a fellow TFF member use ?

I know that shirley creek is a go for sure and, I think all the ramps should be usable. The lake is approximately 1 ft low now.

Hey, thanks I was starting to think they didnt want us Louisiana boys asking questions on here, LOL !! Yes i actually called Shirley Creek and Powell Park, they both said the same thing. I really was just wandering about the further North ones at the bridges.

I will send you a PM or email for a couple of questions, thanks

I know of 3 ramps that don't get crushed during the Big Mac. 2 are private, all are on the north side. Might try Bayou Recreation Site that launches back in 5 Fingers , take the Powell Park turn off. There is also a private launch in an addition on the east side of FM705 about a mile or 2 down from 83. These ramps have no wait times.

We have a couple lake houses still open for the tournament this weekend. Perfect for a small group or family to come and enjoy the tournament. Keep your boat in the water and avoid the busy boat ramps. Please call me Jeff Buchanan at 936-240-1700 or Tara Smith 936-671-0200. Should be a great tournament, Rayburn is about 1/2 foot low right now and in great shape.

The Cassels Boykin ramps are a great place becuase there is two locations and they have lots of parking at the new ramp with big overflow.

God bless and good luck,
