Title: Lake Fenton Boat Launch News
Post by: dartag on May 31, 2012, 07:43:08 AM
Don't fish it but I know there are guys that do.
Got to love the state closing a launch in the middle of summer.   The lake owner people will be happy..

At least it is open on weekends with limited parking. I haven't been there in decades. Was the ramp and parking in bad shape? Maybe they're adding new parking spots? The last time was there, the ramp was full and people were parked down the road waiting to get in. Still like that in the summer?

That's a bummer for me 'cause I like to fish there a lot.  It's nuts there on weekends in the summer with pleasure boat traffic.  If you get there early to fish there's no problems launching but the traffic is bad at take-out.  I didn't think the lot or ramp were in bad shape but it was a bit tight and congested.
