Yes Don, the Blackwater side. We launch from Ponderosa at Horseshoe Bend. We don't know any other places where we can launch except Hardy Rd. Well, or Hales Ford but it's too congested there. Any other places you know if would be welcomed . We are only 20-25 mins. from Hardy Rd or Blackwater in either direction. We did ck out SML State Park once but there was such heavy boat traffic we spent the whole time turning the boat to the waves so we didn't end up swimming back to the dock!
