How is this landing anymore? Any need to worry about truck/trailer/contents?
I remember back in the day it was a haven for drug users and the like, but I have heard they have “cleaned up” the neighboring area.
Sure would be convenient to me for some fishing on that side of town.
Thanks

I live very close to that boat ramp and have often driven by and even jog by it occasionally but I don’t think I’d feel comfortable leaving my truck there. There seems to be a lot of traffic going through there and I don’t mean boats.

I used it yesterday for about 10 minutes. Had a prop to test. There was another truck there the whole time I was, with trailer, off to the side. There was also a black Lexus pulled up under the tree, with a gentleman sitting in it with the windows down the whole time.
I “accidentally” let my shirt ride up as I entered the boat and exposed my weapon. He saw it and left. Whoops.
I ran to the Ashley, ran the prop, and headed back in uneventfully.

You’re a true badazz!
Nah, just a regular guy who works hard for his things and doesn’t want some lowlife taking those things. Could have been pure coincidence that he left. I will not use this landing again, however.

Maybe the guy in the black Lexus didn’t feel safe due to someone “accidentally” exposing his weapon… I think it’s called concealed carry for a reason.

You could always make friends with someone from Ashley Town Landing or Drayton on the Ashley both of the neighborhoods have nice landings
Is that the one off dorchester rd in oakbrook??
Nope. On Pierpont off Hwy 61 in WA.

Went back today on the way to a different landing to check it out before the storm to run another prop. Broke up some sort of deal in the parking lot and 2 cars hauled ass and 4 or 5 guys ran down a trail into the woods. I didn’t stay.
Pit viper, you’re right, it’s called that for a reason. And your “maybe” scenario is entirely possible. Regardless, it happened and it’s done. Now that I think about it, my use of quotations on the word may have been a little much. I didn’t brandish my weapon, I simply didn’t keep my shirt down when climbing in the boat. As stated before, probably coincidence, it’s doubtful he even saw. He certainly didn’t leave right away.
