How is the water at pier 90. Is it too high to launch. We are fishing the Media tx out of Signette Sunday and going down Saturday to scout. Thinking about launching at pier 90 but wondering about the water level.

How is the water at pier 90. Is it too high to launch. We are fishing the Media tx out of Signette Sunday and going down Saturday to scout. Thinking about launching at pier 90 but wondering about the water level.
Was normal this past Saturday!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
Water level should be fine but be very careful on that POS back down. Dont even bother trying to use the new one unless the water is way up. It flatens out before you can get your boat off the trailer. The old ramp does not have an even spot on it. I had a hard time getting on the trailer last week and busted a trailer tire on some cement off the old back down. I chewed the launch collector a new azz when she asked for 5 bucks.
If I were you I would travel another 6 miles or so and use the free launch behind the westwego shrimp lot. It puts you in right next to the Segnette launch.

I would not even classify Pier 90 as a boat ramp..
The only problem with Sat. is it will be crowded ! The CMN Tx is Sat. and half the field will probably be in Catauache.
The launch at pier 90 SUCKS!!!
I refuse to go there and pay money again. You would thing they would use some of that money to fix the ramps. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthdown.gif

I said the same thing but my buddy insisted on launching there this past Sat, and to my surprise it wasnt that bad... Launched on the first ramp and pulled out on the second with no problems... But it SUXS when it rains!!
I said the same thing last time when my cross beam bottomed out and my trailer got stuck. Went back anyway and this time my trailer tire is busted when I pull out the water...I mean it this time I will not go back unless the water is high enough to use the new ramp.
That lady with the fanny pack gets on my last nerves also. You barley get out your truck and she is up your azz looking for money talking all kinds of crazy crap..
Good luck on Saturday at Pier 90. Out of the 220 boats fishing CMN probably 150 will be in tank pond. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif

That's probably what we are gonna do. My partner said that he thinks we should launch at 90. We are gonna get a late start Saturday because I have to do a generator test at 4:30 that morning. So he just thought it would get us on the water quicker. Aftyer I tell him about how bad the landing is i can almost guarantee we will be at Signette http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif ...Thanks for the info Guys
Man F*** Pier 90! My partner busted a brake line pulling out of that raggedy azz launch today! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif

The back gate opens up real early. Last two times I went, I was the first one to the Tank Ponds from Segnette.
Last time I went both were closed and we waited until 6 before they opened up. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif
