Chuck I think you might be all right at the second ramp with your boat unless they have "fixed" it also. Its been years since I've been on the lake. I just never had a problem at this ramp before. You will do fine with the fish if quality isn't a factor. Typical Yadkin chain lake, over fished, under managed, and whatever that black crap is all over the bottom.

Newly smokey has a low trailer you might need to try the lower ramp as well. Glad you got that stuff taken care of. Motors is costly Man. Props are costly to. This thing sells for more than my first boat. Hoping to get it reworked.
