Boaters beware before thinking about dropping anchor at a barricaded boat ramp on Canyon Lake.
At least four public ramps have been closed â not because drought has led to drops in water levels throughout the entire lake but only in sections, and all four are in the Canyon Lake Hills area.
âCurrently (county) ramps Nos. 5, 7, 22, and 23 are closed due to the lake levels,â Comal County Sheriffâs Office Lt. Mike Smith said. âDriving around barricades is covered under Section 472.022 of the Texas Transportation Code and carries a fine up to $200 when not related to barricades placed due to water over the roads such as in flash flood occurrences.â
