Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

Anyone still riding Lake Belton this late? If so - what ramps still have operational docks?

Thanks in advance.

No courtesy docks have been floating since early summer. Ft Hood side of the lake probably still has their long dock accessible near the marina at BLORA

Drove down to Franks to take a look yesterday, while the level has increased slightly, AJ is still spot on. You can use the ramp at Franks; however, you will still need to get wet up to the waist to get in and out of your boats. Bummer.

The docks at Stillhouse Marina is still a go, however. Just stay in the main lake by the dam and you do not have to worry about stumps or pecan trees. Absolutely do not venture around the first point by the water intake or you will be in deep trouble. Water is super clear this time of year.

Spent a few hours on the lake earlier today. Some debris in the main lake, but overall the water was clear and glassy and the day was superb. What a great lake - well worth the drive from North Austin.

Are you talking about Stillhouse?

Belton. Launched at Franks Marina

Lake Belton is a great lake. If you know the underwater typography of Franks Marina and you have a boat driver you can trust you can launch and pick up the tow vehicle driver without them getting wet. The shore between those 3-4 barges is very steep and clean underwater so you can just pull your bow up to the rocks and they can just step down into the bow of the boat without fear of hitting the prop or any other drive hardware of the boat.
