Pull up to get your boat out and it’s about a 100 degrees.   A guy backs down the ramp to put his boat in.   Then he gets out and opens the hood takes the battery out of his truck, putting it in his boat, starts the boat, removes the battery from the boat, takes it back to his truck, reinstalls it back in the truck, gets back in the truck backs the boat into the water, gets back in the boat and backs off the trailer, then goes and parks the trailer.

How did that go?

Was he planning on leaving it running all day?  I would have pulled up to and ask him to shut off his engine so I could talk to him about something.  And, motored away.....

I don’t know what he did after that.  I left.  There’s a pay to launch ramp I would use but it’s not on the part of the river I like to fish the most.  But he has 4 ramps and I’ve never waited once there. Plus my vehicle is safer.  It used to be $5 per day but he went to yearly for $150.

Oh well it went very downhill from there and he got a very "color full" (expletives deleted) piece of my mind. 

Bottom line.. our boat ramps are not parking lots or fishing piers, launch your boat and move on.

Rant over.

Man, you can't fix stupid. I just do not understand how people can be so inconsiderate, but I've seen it enough now to know there are almost no limits. It would be really interesting to see how that would play out in South Louisiana.

They would probably end up as alligator bait.😄

You guys are acting like ramp ignorance is something new. From Memorial Day to Labor Day it's going to be entertaining. Always has, always will.

I suspect someone would hop in and move it or throw it in neutral and let it go back into the swamp

I think Boudreau or Thibadoux would punch him in the face and bust the windows in his truck for starters

I really feel its our responsibility to correct it.  Some way, somehow.  Otherwise we will be celebrating BRI Day from now on during that period.  They will declare Memorial Day as May Teenth in the future.  We will never have a liberation holiday from the madness on Victory Day the second weekend in Sept, if the weather cools.  You really need to be a bigger dick than the ones you encounter if you feel your opinion is correct.  Take our summers back.  Their toys are going to be useless when the banks repossess them soon.

Time to bring baseball bats and pick handles to the ramps!  BTW, a pick handle is about $10.  A bat is ... well, more.
