Haven't been out to the Vine in nearly 3 weeks. Went to launch to boat this morning and found my favorite ramp closed. Drove around and saw all my courtesy docks on dry land. Where is the best place to launch a boat right now? I don't have a keel guard so I'm hesitant to load/unload people from the bank.
Thanks

1899 Katies Woods Loop Grapevine, Texas
Katies Woods boat ramp is arguably the best boat ramp on the south side of Lake Grapevine. It offers both a normal ramp and a high water ramp for when the lake level is above normal. There is ample parking, but this is a heavily used ramp so there are occasions when the parking lot fills up early in the day. The boat ramp is protected by a nice sized cove which is helpful on windy days.
i used it last week so i know its good.

Take a change of shoes, socks pants.
Katie Woods is the best place to launch, but unless you have someone with you, you're getting in the water.
Maybe ok with a truck, but in an SUV, you're either climbing over all the seats and crawling out the back or you're gettin' wet. That was my experience in my Jeep two weeks ago.
Good fishing.
