tb4me Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Ok quick question for you Dan...Having never been to this lake what is the launch like there? Im wondering if we should be there an hour or so early to get launched? were bringing a 12 ft tinny so if its real busy we could just toss it in anywhere. what are your thoughts on this? Do we start at 8 am sharp?

Im wondering if we should be there an hour or so early to get launched? were bringing a 12 ft tinny so if its real busy we could just toss it in anywhere. what are your thoughts on this? Do we start at 8 am sharp? I can give you a decent answer on that one...the launch isn't usually that busy. Remember there are no gas motors allowed on the lake, so it cuts down on boat traffic considerably. There is a decent grade heading down to the lake, but, you could walk a 12 fter in fairly easily. Looks like we are going to have quite the cold front rolling through, so, super-slow presentations this weekend. I'll let Dan or Ryan help out more with the time...I'm not sure what time the gatehouse will be open.
danbouck Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Not sure exactly what time we are starting at but the ramp will not be busy. We will probably be the only ones launching at that time. I will be there probably an hour early getting things ready to go.

The Urban Fisherman Posted September 1, 2010 Author Report Posted September 1, 2010 Hey guys!!! I just got off the water after a tough day at the office... Haha I'm on my phone so I'll keep this short and get back to you all on Friday when I'm home. Our start time is 8 am for those who can make it there on time. I'm thinking it'll likely take us a good half hour or so to get everyone launched. I'm going to try to be there for around 6:30 so I can help get organized. The news paper is goin to be there shortly after 8 for a picture of the group and to ask a few questions for their write up. I'll get y'all all the info you need on Friday! The park is charging us 10 bucks per vehicle.... The gates are open all night and we can pay on out way out.. Keep up the awesome work! Thanks again for everything! Cheers, Ryan
