I have heard a rumor that they were going to build a new ramp below the locks at the new bridge in Gratz, that would be about 1 mile below the locks and would be nice. The ramp above the locks is at Six Mile Creek. Below is only gravel or rock and you would need a 4x4 to get in and out. I used to put in there all the time with no problems but that has been about 3 years and my boat was a 17' bass boat and i had no problems. My boat now is over 19' and alot heavier and I would not even attempt to put in below the locks, even though I really miss the fishing down there this time of year.
