A coupe of public ramps in South Pittsburg. Don't know their status. One is the old ferry crossing with a matching ramp across the river. The other is upstream a little in a little public park.

Hales Bar is bankrupt, don't know their status </p>

Used to be a ramp below Hales Bar near Serdino Still looks good on Google map.

A private (commercial) ramp below <span class="st">Riverside Catfish House on old 41. A long shot ask nicely and be prepared to pay </span><span class="st">(fish and mussels, used to rent rooms and long term dock space).</span></p>

Community Ramp on Mullins Cove by the Kelly's Ferry Community Church. Suggest contacting their Fire Chief on Vincent Vella@firedepartmentofmullinscove about permission to use preferably with a donation.

Private?/public by Macedonia church in New Hope just up from Nickajack Cave Famous for break ends and thefts.</p>

Public ramp at Nickajack Cave</p>

Public ramp at Running Water public use area @ Haletown may be too rough to use</p>

Sullivan's on 41 </p>

Some naturally sloping banks along Mullins Cove Rd/Suck Creek River Canyon Rd if you have 4WD and are willing to take a chance.</p>Be nice and polite, a lot of drug relay points along the river.
 
At one point Bennett lake was almost unusable. I didn't come to mind.</p>

If use use it the slew on the right use to be one of the best bream beds around.

Old ramp on Bennett lake has been shut down and new one built. It is TWRA ramp. Should be open.
