well I finally got a chance to take the boat out this morning, but short trip to Chester Frost park killed that ideal....not one place to park the trailer.
Maybe FLW and other tournaments should have to pay the park to have tournaments there, then maybe they could afford to expand the ramp parking area.
just a thought because its getting worse every year.... Any other suggestions?

was WAY easier just to put in at holly circle and run 10mins down the lake than trailer 45mins over to wolfteever or hbsp

There are some improvements. Holly Creek has expanded the parking, and last I knew it was in Hamilton county. Chester Frost is a lot more work to expand.

OK, Wolftever I know. Where is Holly Circle/Creek?

In Soddy behind the Presbyterian cemetery about a mile or so off old highway 27=== In the back of Soddy Creek

Maybe the people not towing trailers should park somewhere other than in the trailer parking areas. Won’t happen and will just get worse as the area continues to grow and gain in popularity.

At one time Soddy Daisy were giving tickets to vehicles at Holly Circle boat ramp if it was parked in a spot marked for trailers and it did not have a trailer hooked to it

Park rangers could have gave out 20 or 30 tickets for illegal parking when FLW was here, trailers parked in grass all over the place...I wish there was a simple solution.

If you're retired, there is plenty of open parking during the week at HB. I never have a problem finding one there or Wolftever.
