Lake lavon ramp closures - 10/17/18 02:11 AM

Does anybody know what ramps at lavon have been closed so far. I have been told Brockdale and Tickey have already been closed. I am needing to know so we know hat we need to do for the Princeton FFA tournament this Saturday. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Wow...… I didn't know they had re-opened ole Ticky. There is one ramp that is always open off 380 before you go over Lavon on the 380 bridge. But be careful because the pot holes going to that launch are mini craters and can damage your tow vehicle and trailer. I got out on Lavon that way a few days ago. It's plenty of sticks to fish but no Bass really on that side of Lavon. Good luck.

I launch here usually. Just run to the south side of the lake. Careful, there are a lot of stumps up there. Know where to run. Pm me if need help.

I spoke with Corp office this morning and was told all ramps will be closed. Since then a buddy drove around the lake and sent me a text saying they are all closed. So if you awere planning on fishingvthe FFA tourny for Princeton it will be reschedules more than likely for November so keep an eye out.

Odd, COE site, http://www.swf-wc.usace.army.mil/lavon/, shows Mallard Park and Highland park fully open.

I called the corps and Highland and Mallard park boat ramps are open.
Also indicated that kayakers could still use a boat ramp which is closed. Just want to keep boats and vehicles off the ramps as they can damage them in high water conditions.

I was at Mallard Park today and the ramp is open but the courtesy dock is under water. Hard to find a spot for your partner to get in the boat without getting wet.

I wasn't fishing, just checked to see if it was open. I don't bang the bottom of my boat on concrete though if that answers your question. thumb
