Georgetown Lake Boat Fee!
TooLucky406:
Just fyi to those who plan to fish Gtown with a boat, there is now a $5 fee to launch from Red Bridge, Grassy, Philipsburg Bay, and Piney boat ramp. Folks are monitoring the ramp daily.... as far as fishing report goes, not much happening yet, but manage to hook up several dozen bows later in the afternoon.
spedray:
Are these public launches?
TooLucky406:
These are all Forest Service own boat ramp. So yes they are public. Not sure if the State own (Stuart Mill Bay) boat launch cost $$$ or not but you're not going to be able to launch any size boat there.
spedray:
Did they say why they charge a fee now?
TooLucky406:
Like all things, buget cuts mean no additional funding to maintain Rec use on GTown. The boat fee($5) and now ALSO dayuse fee($3 if not boating), is going to be use to up keep Rec sites.
