Daniel or Jeff - any of the regular Dale Hollows guys. What ramps are you using or which are still usable? Hearing most are either dry or getting unusable. Really hate to cancel my trip next week, but no ramps kind of puts the damper on things. Current lake level is 635, with rumor of draw down to 631.

The State Park Ramp is usable year round...water gets low stay to the left side (when backing in near the dock).
Jeff picked me up on Sunday @ Hendricks Creek, and his depth finder stopped reading about 150 ft from the ramp....would NOT want to try and launch at that ramp.
USUALLY the state park ramp is good year round.

Thanks Ed - now let's hear the rest of the story. We all know if it is to be caught, Jeff is the right guy to be in the boat with. Any bragging rights ?

Wisdom is probably soon to close. It pushes it. The longest side is closest to the dock. I fished there once and guys were dumping trailers off the end left and right.
Andrew from Smalljaw told me that Holly Creek is the best ramp on the lake. They have put a bunch of gravel out to help with it. Daniel is down there now.....I'm sure he will have some insight when he gets back.

He caught about 5 nice ones none over 21", I could not get mine hooked and keep getting off, and had one real nice one break off. All total Jeff and I both broke about 11 or 12 off. Not his fault I did not boat a fishDid learn some more from him tho

Willow Grove on the TN side stays useable all year, they have also extended their ramp with rock and gravel.
