    Jane and I will be up Wednesday. We will be fishing saugerama. With low water levels we were wondering if the boat ramps at Baypoint and Coville are safe to put a tandam trailer in. I have my doubts about getting out of coville park. I am sure we will put in at Everts one day or more. ANy information is appreciated. Thanks.

    i dont know about the baypoint but the coville landing is safe, just stay in the channel and dont trim your motor to far down

    If you are going out of colville I would say trim your motor up as far as you can as you approach the exit. The north or upriver side of the exit has a lil more water than the downriver side. I recall the mid to downriver side having about 1.2 fow. Happy hunting, fish are eating, just scattered throughout the entire system.

    If using baypoint, stay on the northside of the ramp, guys are dropping into a hole on the southside with bigger trailers.

    The first ramp at Everts (at the bottom of the hill) is great. They are taking Tuna Boats out of the river there.

    The next two ramps up stream are fine as well for tandem trailers. Steve put some rock in the scour holes a while back. The trailers are dropping gently off the cement ramp and onto the river gravel. Backing into the river is not an issue.

    The top two ramps have red cones on them and are Out of Service, which is what normally happens later in the year.

    I would suggest when leaving Everts to boat directly out into the river. The Trimbelle (the river in front of the campers) area is very shallow as in any low water time.
