Default Canyon Lake members?

Wondering how many members here frequent Canyon? Got our lil purple Mariah out for the first time this season this past Sunday after most of the tourists had gone home. Lake is pretty low for us at 9' down. Hoping to hit LBJ and Travis at least once this year.

Been boating at Canyon for years. First as rental boats, then as jet ski's, and now as a high performance boater. Next trip is planned for Easter weekend. Got a bunch of work to do on the boat to clean it up after winterizing. Will most likely try to splash for a couple runs up and down the lake.

Nice Formula!
Looks like the Mother in law is coming in for Easter, so if we do get out on the lake, try not to capsize us when you fly past. lol.

What is the water level like at Canyon? I don't see much hope for a Travis recovery short of a miracle monster storm.

It's 9' down and most of the ramps are open. If you're coming out let me know and I can advise you on the best way to get there to quickly access what I consider to be some of the better ramps. The one I use is free, double wide, and has a nice aluminum floating dock.

I normally launch at Jacobs creek via joint base gate. Where is the ramp you use, I launch by myself a lot. Deep ramp?
