I agree. He realized he f*cked up so he made something up quick.

Ive seen some near fist fights at the ramp. It sure would make a good show if they could get some people out there with video cameras to different ramps.

My wife and I have been known to go to boat ramps to "watch the boats come in".

Lol

The ramps here aren't as fun as the Midwest, most here are gentle slopes,,,,,,, in the Midwest most are very steep. I could sit with a cooler and be entertained all day long.

Never heard of that here in Michigan. He must go through lights like crazy. Hot lights and water don't mix. My friends and I have launched and taken boats out without waiting in line, but there is room at the launch and if you don't need a dock, just drive your trailer in and load and unload, no problem cutting. Never been *****ed at as we aren't cutting due to not tying a ramp up and are in and out faster than the people asking about your lights not being on.

I had to wait in line behind this guy to launch at a LA ramp to go fishing a few weeks ago! He didn't have his lights on so we should've gone around him.

Yea, I'd wait too.....................lights or no lights!..

Had to do a double take at your post, when you said a LA ramp, being a Cali guy I'm thinking "Los Angeles"
Don't see Gators at LA, CA ramps too much.
