The argument that Ky is losing tournaments to Paris because of a small ramp at Ky Dam does not hold water. The launch ramp and parking area at Paris is no where near as big as Ky Dam Marina. If Ky is losing tournaments to Tennessee it is because the folks in Tennessee are offering more incentives for the tournament trail owners to bring their tournaments there. As far as putting a big tournament ramp and parking area anywhere on the LBL, I would be totally against it. We don't have enough wilderness area now in Ky and we don't need to lose more for such an enterprise. You can already get to both lakes from Ky Dam Marina...all you have to do is cross the lake...not like it is a long run. There is more than ample tournament parking and ramps in Kuttawa also, no need to put another big one on N. Barkley.
