I just picked up the keys to my new house in marysville and the agent told me of a ramp under the bridge so I when off to find it. Its a small ramp with very litte parking but its free. does anyone here every use this ramp and how safe is it. do I have to worry about my truck here anymore then at the everret ramp? its only a mile or so from my house and i would like to use to but dont know the area yet. any comments on this ramp. I know some of you sturgeon guys have to know this ramp. Tom

I use the ramp often, park either under the bridge if you can, watch for the log loader that goes back and forth, If you can't park under the bridge, park in the dirt lot back out by the Emissions place, I would never leave my rig on the west side road leading out to the reservation, have heard of problems when parking there.

thanks for the info and if you fish the area get a hold of me some time and will spend a day fishing . Tom

It's been awhile but when we were launching there, high tide was never a problem but low tide could get tricky at times. especially on the runs out to mission. You had to know where the channel was or you would end up grounded in the mud. Might be worth your while to feel it out sometime. On a related note, there are plans for a park with boat launch and parking just a little ways upstream by the city parks dpt. in the (hopefully near) future. Welcome to Marysville!

Thanks for the new on the new park .that will be even closer to the house.

Ramp under freeway is ok for everything tide wise except a real low minus. When running down river stay towards the res. side as there a couple of shoals in center. Watch out for log loader traffic-the drivers are real good about giving a guy a break when launching but they got a job to do so be quick. AND when parking on river side of road please park at an angle to road . There have been a couple of knuckleheads that insist on parking parellel to the road and it really screws everybody else. Also parking on north side of road.
