It burns my butt that we have to pay attendants to launch at Boat ramps on the Ohio River that were built with our tax money. The corp built those ramps and gave them to the county or city goverment. In turn the city leases them out to a private party and they are suppose to maintain the launch ramp area. I'll bet that the attendants don't make much money and someone is getting rich off this.

I stopped going to the river for many reasons. Boat too small for the waves etc but one of the reasons was the price to launch a boat.

At KY lake and many other lakes there are free launch ramps that were built with Tax money.

We need to setup one of them Digital Cameras near the parking lots and make sure that it works. I have seen them at Walmart and other stores. Evidently they work like a motion detector spotlight and will take a picture when something gets in range and in the ir beam. I talked to a guy once about using one of these camera to catch illegal dumpers in the Blue Grass Fish and Wildlife area. Last year I saw that someone had dumped a bunch of old car tires along the gravel road that goes from Loon Pit to Boonville New Harmony Road. And then someone else dumped an old appliance at one of the parking lots. Man the DNR has better things to do than to clean up after people's garbage.
