Insane they haven't taken those out. SMH. Preach safety but they don't do much to help the cause like adding a safe place to dock boat coming/going from Holiday Lodge once water is up higher. Can't tell you how many boats I've watch get sunk there. Especially once it gets up a bit over that bank. People coming in from the east hit ground. Boat turns around next thing big wave over back end. I just don't understand it. How hard would it be to mark things?

Working habitat day at Butla we came across an old pile of concrete. Guessing it was left over from the castings at Plantation Point. I brought home a few items from the area, let them dry and see if they work.
My contact at Sardis won't reply about the history of the lake/ rivers.

You would think they would mark them with buoys .

A little history from my source. Panola county was connected to Oxford by way of Coontown on Iron rd. When the lake was formed Panola changed it to New Hope rd. The lower ramps are on the old road. No plans for markers around the concrete.

The Corps of Engineers won't mark it because they already have their disclaimer at every boat ramp warning of dangerous underwater obstructions and obstacles. If they mark that concrete and didn't mark any of the others, they could possibly open themselves up for a lawsuit for damage or personal injury from the "sue happy" people because it wasn't marked!

Makes a little sense. Just don't understand why they can't just knock them down. Kind of scares me since I've been flying right by those things. Lucky.Originally Posted by armyman

Just a thought but why don't we start a stickey or a thread and have folks post danger zones on these lakes im pretty sure all of us together have some maybe we can save a lower unit or two

I will come down and saw them off, start a "Sardis Save Your Lower Unit Fund" and call me late next fall.

Great idea, slabin! Also, maybe we could come up with our own marking system, such a white jug w' florescent tape around it. If someone is in the area, drop a 3 oz weight on some nylon cord. Some body needs to mark that sucker out from Holiday Lodge if they're in the area!
