    May try the night fishing bite with lights this week. Any suggestions on the best and safest ramp to use on Priest? Thanks!

    The marinas charge you to launch. I use Long Hunter at night they have park rangers and metro police patrols.

    If you’re on the North end of the lake, Nashville Shores Marina is as good as I’ve found on JPP, especially with regards to night fishing and/or safety. I’ve been using it for over a year and haven’t seen anything concerning.

    I actually just took over the service and parts department at a boat dealer out that way and its the one we use to test boats. They do charge 8.00 launch fee but it is nice and very well lit.

    Congrats, EA. I would guess it’s The Boat Locker?

    One thing worth noting, they do offer a yearly pass for ~$95. So depending on how much you use the launch it might be worth the investment.

    Yes it is. They actually let us use it for free due to we make a lot of dock calls down there as well for their customers.

    Thanks! Deff different than the car industry! One thing I am working on for those that use the Mercury DFI oil is being able to sell it in bulk a lot cheaper than other places.

    I Night fish quite a bit during the summer and have always used Seven Points without any problems. Its well lit, you have Metro Police that patrols it and its a busy ramp so someone is always around.

    I use Smith Springs.. Most every time we come in we see a Metro Cop parked up top. So I feel safe there..
