Boat ramp is still closed at Lake Murray

[VinnyBass]

Just a heads up if anyone’s heading over to Lake Murray with a boat, you’re not gonna be able to launch because they blocked the ramp. It says car toppers and Kayaks only on the sign because the water is low. Another bummer!!!

ps. That guy on the water in the photo had a car topper and said they put the signs and tape across the ramp after he was out fishing. Again, you can still fish and launch a kayak or a car topper as of today 3/26, but that may change.
Dang!

Hodges. El Cap. Sutherland. Murray. Wow. At least Murray is temporary unlike the others.

Thanks for the update. I went over there twice today and I couldn’t find anyone to tell me how long it’s gonna be. It’s happened before over there and I see it happening again in the future where they just lower the water and screw up the boat ramp for launching boats. Very frustrating.

Drove over to Murray late this afternoon and ramp is still closed and I’m pretty sure it’ll be closed for another week or so.
