I fish TX alot and they have launch fees at most all of their ramps-usually $5 or $10.
So it got me to thinking-on those lakes that close the ramp long before the lake ices, if they charged a launch fee maybe that would allow them to stay open to ice on. CPW is always saying they don't have the funds in their budget-a $5 launch fee might be enough to keep it open. I'm not excited about spending more money but if you could boat at Cherry Creek or Chatfield a month longer, wouldn't it be worth it?
