Oh yes, it's definitely have to be improved. That whole area is a nice flats before the creek, but I can see how launching there might be problematic. Like I said though, purely selfish reasons: it's a perfect kayak launch and it beats the heck out of paddling the ~2 miles there from the city launch.

Most of the fishing boats bee-line it from the launch to that creek area regardless, with the exception of the times the fish are in the deep cover around the valve tower. I rarely, if ever, see anyone on that western side.
