Oh contre', I could sit at Tommy's Trading Post with a video camera and win $10,000.00 on Americas Funniest Video's. I once witnessed two guys in a 2 door Buick with a trailer hitch trying to load a 20' Triton. They did alright until they tried to pull out of that steep boat ramp, lol.

Thats why I now stop at Tommy's for breakfast and minners....then launch at browns lol. If anything, at least I can find a parking spot. However, for pure enjoyment, I would put my put my camera at the Madison launches by cock of the walk in the summertime.

As I fish alone a lot, I would add, don't tie off in the ramp space to walk to your truck. If at all possible bank it or tie off out of the way.

i cant stand it when someone loads or unloads the boat on the ramp. the ramp is for on or off the trailer. get it done and move plzzzzzz.

Unfortunately at the ramps at Nader the ramp its self is the safest place to pull your boat, riff raff all around it and a concrete ramp, concrete ramp wins every time. This morning will be interesting, speck it will be 60 or 70 boats trying to unload at once. Hopefully it will go smooth.

Never thought bout headlights. Thnx for tips. Usually only boat on water when I get there.

LOL, I meant the headlight thing. I've seen some real idiots at the ramps. Hacks me off when you have 2 shoots that hold 2 boats each and ALL 4 boats back in and start unloading their truck into the boat. THEN they have to unhook the boat, and everything else.
