I launched at the public boat ramp off highway 59, north of Cleveland, south of Livingston.
Not a soul to be found, River was over 20 foot deep in the middle consistently. Probably about a 5 mph current.

When we got off the water, I talked to another guy that said sometimes the boat ramp has too much sand and gets difficult to launch, but it was great yesterday.

So much better water than lake conroe and only about 15 minutes further for me to drive.

This will be my new area for water sports. Only downside was, at anchor, couldn’t really swim as current pulled you away from boat too quickly.

Ha, I almost launched there one time and thought "hmm this is very suspicious, there is no one here..." I'll head back and check it out. Thanks for posting.

Interesting, might have to come check it out. I keep saying we will go up to Rayburn but still haven't made it. Clear lake is my normal area only because it's my back yard..well, maybe 50yds.
