The last time I counted them all there were about 100 boat ramps on Lanier.
On a random and mysteriously rotating basis, a few launches are close to fishing holes where you are guaranteed to catch your limit of whoppers. Choose wisely or you might get skunked.
Here’s the list, sorted A-Z … until the cycle changes again.

- Balus Creek
