DaleHollow New parking boat trailers issue

[pastorbass]

I am greatly reconsidering hosting a tournament on Dale. We were there in December and had 40 boats. The lodge wouldn't give us a discount... yes the rooms are only $65 for a non-view, but add sales tax and another 10% tourism fee and you are way over $65. Plus the non-view rooms run out quicker so you may get stuck with a $75 room plus tax and and tourism tax. Then they hit you for around $12 for a buffet.

The parking lot was all taken over by construction equipment and materials and things did get a little congested during loading and unloading. If the upper lot is all that is allowed for boaters that lot may get full quick.

I will say this about Dale - they have some of the most helpful and friendly Rangers. We had bull horn issues and the night Ranger did everything he could to find us one.

Thanks for the info.

Hey Rick. Thanks for the info, keep us posted.

Is the ramp frozen up over there? Supposed to warm up some, and I was considering floating a fly some Sunday in that toasty 50 degree weather. Of course I'd be less than honest if I didn't admit the live bait option sounds pretty good too.

ramp was ok 2 days ago, our cages are on the new dock, no ele, out there ( no easy way to get out to it) havent pulled bait in couple wks, the bait we had was getting a lot of fungus on it as they age............we need a nice warm rainy night!

I'm considering going down and staying a night or so at the KY State Park lodge in February. I've never been there. Is there any issue right now with launching a boat there - low water, construction, etc.?

You can launch without too much trouble, it's one lane and a little rough but works. Parking as mentioned above just do as prompted by people there and you should be fine.
