Firebassr & I are going to Kerr this weekend. Can get you some info then....
I was down there over Labor Day weekend and it was low,low, low. I've never seen it that low before.
I used the ramp at North Bend, but it was shallow. The water was almost all the way out to the end of the dock. If you tied your boat up at the very end you were sitting in about 1 1/2 foot of water.
Here's a link where you can check the level: http://www.kerrlake.info/
Good luck!
Water is already significantly lower than it was Labor Day. I've been several times since then. The ramp at North Bend is useable, but very tricky. Be careful backing out after you get off the trailer.
With two weeks to go, there is no way to say right now what ramps will still be open. Rudds and Grassy are two of the deepest on the lake, so they should be fine. The forecast from the Corp is for it to drop about two more feet in the next few weeks. Probably most places you usually fish are growing sod right now.
Be extremely careful if you are not very familiar with the lake, it is getting to the point where it is dangerous. Give all points plenty of room!! Headed back tomorrow for the weekend, dont' see much changing but it getting even lower.
Take a camcorder and video me some stumps....lol
That's in SC that ain't Buggs ..............is it
Yup, that's about what it looked like. I spent most of my time marking stump beds and rock piles on the GPS for next spring.

Looks kinda like a few areas I fished in Bluestone the other day....
Water is really low now, its scary..
That is a nice looking stump field. Where is that located on Buggs? I am not familiar with Buggs only been a couple of times. If anyone would like some company to look at the lake while it is low to mark some spots email me at jrleewood@comcast.net.
Looks like a few years ago when it got down to 291. I've still got my tapes and gps cords.
somebody needs to do a rain dance

For you guys that taped and corded gps did you catch any more fish when you mapped all the cover?
Most of em prolly lost em or never used em
Humm, I bet my maps marked with stumps would be worth a lot of dollars on ebay!
Oh, which lake are we talking of?????
Yes I did do better at the spots I have pictures of...

Marked many more points today. Someone has been busy putting trees in the water. Found several more today that were not there Tuesday. They had nice fish on them. Keep up the good work.I'll be back next weekend to mark the new ones.

There are as many stump fields just like that one as you want to look at right now. Acres and acres.
