Fishing Boat Ramps- NEW VIDEO!

Are boat launches good for bass fishing? Yes, and here’s why!

It's funny how if I'm bank fishing, I'll always hit up the ramp (if it's not busy).  Yet from a boat, I almost never think about it.

 

Oddly enough, I thought about it last weekend when I took my kayak out.  It was the first nice day of spring and everyone in town turned out to the lake.  It was as crowded as a Memorial Day or 4th of July.  So I started searches for places that no one else would think to hit up, and I remembered the ramp!  Didn't catch anything, but I was at least proud of myself for finally remembering to fish the ramp while in a boat!

Never thought about it that way - cool little vid!

Glen I'm disappointed. I thought your video was about grabbing a beer & some popcorn & sitting back to watch all the stupidity that occurs when unqualified people launch & try to retrieve their boats. LOL

Just another reason boat ramps attract fish is the loading of boats churns up the water and oxygenates the whole area. I've found where storm water drainage pipes and culverts dump into the lake it is sometimes a hot spot also. Great video!

Especially in winter here, N GA, I'll drive to 2 or 3 launchramps and throw a worm down the ramp and on the sides.  The water warms up more on the concrete plus they release fish there.

Another little tidbit is that on popular ramps where there's good traffic, many will have a little pocket at the end where the bottom gets "blown out" from power loading; creates a little contour. These can hold fish too.
