This is great news for those of us that fish the lower river at McAlpine dam.

Good news indeed, sounds really good.
Sure hope they put up one heck of a break water. Can you imagine how much silt will collect on a ramp pointed down stream. Just go to Brandeburg city park, llok at the old ramp that points down stream, that's why they had to put in a new one that is perpendicular to the flow.
Second, I hope they put in more parking. Why have a new ramp that many more folks want to use, with too little parking to accommodate the increased use.
Darn there I go again.........applying logic to engineering plans......NOT!
HurricaneBob, we don't want more than 6 boats on the river anyway.:rolleyes:
I think that's the numer of parking spaces for trailers.

Good point, my bad. Hey for $50 a night, I drag my rig up right after you launch and block all remaining parking spaces? I'll just flatten a trailer tire and swear I can't find my jack. :cool:
