    I heard the water is low on Bowstring and that launching a boat could be an issue. I am headed up this weekend with my wife and another couple to fish. It is a 4 hour drive to get there and I want to make sure I am able to launch my boat. Does anyone have any idea on the ramp conditions there? I will be in a Crestliner Fish and Ski 1750. Thanks for the input in advance! I just want to be able to plan on Bowstring, or plan to go somewhere else if Bowstring will be an issue.

    I have attached a picture of my boat with its new wrap.

    as far as boat landings, I heard the best bet on bowstring is the south access!! I will or may be trying the north end! story is boats on rollers have a chance others don’t on bigger boats!!!!

    spent 8 plus hours on little sand with no eyes and 5 snot rockets to show for it. couldn’t get thru the channel to get to big sand.i called bowstring shores they’d let ya launch but they seemed funny about it with them saying people taking boats out sunday. well that 205 chance of rain ended up to be over an inch sunday morning so never did get to bowstring.
