    Perry Lake

    Well the Corporate world has come to Perry Lake. Rock Creek Marina now charges $10 to launch from their ramp. Gonna miss that ramp been using it for years, Dennis was a great guy letting us launch for free. State Park, here I come.

    Wow, $10 is kind of steep to start out at.

    I’ll never go to that ramp again nor will I ever buy any snacks or anything there.

    The marina up by the dam charges 5 for their ramp. I think that’s an old Corp ramp at the other marina. I’m wondering if they leased it from the corp and if so I don’t see how they can charge to use it.

    Rock Creek Marina is owned by Topside Marinas out of Texas. Dennis Hewitt was previous owner, he was a good guy also owned Ozawkie Marine.
