#7 ramp is concrete.

Yes #7 is concrete it's usable now. They dredged it good last year.

what did they dredge ? There's a massive sandbar in front of ramp at low water.

#7 looked good today, there was 6 trucks that had launched this morning. So good luck.

They dredged in front of the ramp. They didn't reach that sand bar. They also removed all the mud and silt off the concrete ramp. It's only usable with water flow from rain runoff and high lake level. Total waste of money. But its great for bank fishermen they love it. It's too far from main lake to fish for crappie. If the lake is at the level to fish there. Good luck. They are in thick cover.

I'm so sick of looking at that . It was a mistake of epic proportion. The politicians responsible for that ramp should be sued by the taxpayers.

Many ages ago I go with a coworker to #7 bridge. It was a gravel ramp then and we couldn't launch. We end up walking the bank under the bridge and trestle. We are catching crappie. I hear a noise on the bridge, hey Don, is that your truck? It was a long walk to a phone. A long wait for someone to show up and a longer wait for a ride home. He got his boat back 7 months later, never found his truck.

They didn't need to spend all that $$$ at Wyatt's either on a parking lot. Never was a problem parking in the rocks/sand really.
