    Congrats on the new boat. I dont know about Harveys, but when I went by Beltzville last week, I didnt see andy ramps. Maybe Vince (Dartman) will know better.
    As for the Pack... it is wide open and the fish are hungry.... But still deep. I still have to break in my new OB. Hope to get out again before long. Trying to finish up
    packing but my move is on hold until they can do a title search. Hopefully by Mid April if this Virus eases up and people get back to work.

    We were out shaking down the new Vexus. It seems to be legit.

    According to the Beltzville State Park website, all facilities are closed, even the restrooms, until April 30th.

    https://www.dcnr.pa.gov/StateParks/F...s/default.aspx

    Maybe they will put the docks in during the first week of May?

    Unfortunately not likely to happen.They will probably be more of a circus if anything.
