    Monroe boat launches

    Thinking about another trip to the ponds but figure Boles may be frozen with the cold weather. I see a launch on the Rasin River 3 miles up from the mouth. I see it is now wake all the way down to the lake. Anyone ( Mike ) know if there is a ramp closer to the lake. Also how deep is the water in front of the plant.

    I have a friend that launched there before, But I have not, and know nothing about it really. Normally the Raisin river freezes the same as the Bolle's Harbor canal anyway. Not enough flow to keep it open.

    Thanks I may try that if we decide to go. I don't have a boat so I am at the mercy of the guy that does.

    Raisin is pretty iced up as of this morning. I went down to check the ramp. Open water and ice chunks in the main river however. Ramp has like 1" or so. I was shocked. Bolles canals ice as well but didn't drive back to the ramp area. Imagine it's getting iffy. As Mini said, it will probably open right back up.
