Thanks for all the replys, most of the public ramps are having problems from people I have spoken to, if the ramp is deep enough then you have trouble getting out to the lake, if they have enough water to get to the lake then the ramp becomes a problem. Sure hate to give up fishin this early just because you can't find deep enough water to float your boat. Has anyone used Catawba state park ? I do know Mienkes and Metzgers marsh have shallow problems getting into the lake. Have not heard from anyone using Cullen park, I know they dredged the new channel but are the ramps deep enough to launch? I know many boaters will be looking for deep water places in the upcoming weeks so please keep us posted, Thanks again
