........ $plish-$plash....where's the bass!
Last year, the Town of Center Harbor raised their launch ramp fee from ten to fifteen dollars, but it's only in prime time, like summer weekends and such, that there's anyone there to collect the money, so's it is usually free, and it is a well constructed ramp just below the Heath hardware store in Center Harbor with trailer-vehicle parking on the dirt p-lot up the hill a couple hundred yards and to the left of Heath's supermarket and the NH state liquor store.
Have noticed that now with Ames Farm ramp in Alton closed to public use and closed to bass fishing tournaments, the Center Harbor ramp and the Center Harbor Inn nearby have become a starting venue for spring, summer and fall bass fishing tournaments where they all start, for example, at 7-am on Saturday mornings with maybe 25 super-nice-expensive bass boats and super-nice tow vehicles.....you know the big money has arrived when these super-duper bass boats hit the water ..... $plish-$plash! .... gotta have a boat capable of 70-mph to get to the hot spots to get that big fat bass!
There's a food cart that sells hot dogs and coffee at the launch ramp with a very grumpy, older woman who collects the $15-ramp launch fee. You know, they could sell a lot more coffee and donuts and hot dogs if they had some hot younger babe who was dressed just a little bit provocatively ..... would do much more coffee and donuts business....you know it.....and make it more of a go-to spot for boaters and fishermen!
