was nice, back when one could drive in and park along the river just below the creek.


There reason why people started launching there in te first place was due to a large log jam blocking the entire river just below the park. The log jam has been starting to break up over the past year so launching at Schafer May become the launch again.


I first used the Decker Creek site after the Park folks started to padlock their log gate preventing an early morning launch. If we had a couple of boats we would manhandle the boats over the fence on the upriver W. side of the bridge. If not, launched at Decker. Did have a gas tank lock punched out and gas siphoned there once during the first gas crisis if that dates it for you all.

Not to say that all fishermen are perfect but big beer parties and tweekers seem to generate the worst messes. Unfortunately property owners can't be there 24/7 so this is what it comes down to.
