Just wondering what the water level is like for launching.
Thanks in advance.

it was challenging Sept long weekend with 16-17' boats. We did it but was a little dicey. Fishing was really good though. Got some nice fat pike.

THANKS

You would probably be fine if it's a light boat.

It's a Mirrorcraft Deep V with storage live well but not difficult to slide off the bunks or drive onto for loading

The Deep V hull boat we launched and loaded was the hardest of the three. Stay close to the dock and you should be OK.

Just to be sure, we are talking about Twinn Valley south of Nanton?

I am surprised they still had that crazy dock still in.

That's the one. It is high up in the air from the water.
