Reading that Prince Edward County has closed three boat launches due to high water. The article said three more launches but I couldn't find the others.

Big Island
Weller’s Bay – Edward Drive
Mabel Kleinsteuber Launch – County Rd 12

Went through Napanee yesterday and the water is just starting to break over the top of the dock. The ramp is good.

Finkles the water is back up to the top board of the dock (if you can call it a dock). The ramp is good.

Haven't been to the Church, but the dock wasn't useable two weeks ago and the water is higher now.

The Glenora dock will be well underwater. The ramp is good but no place to tie up.

Deseronto should be good.

If your coming down for the holiday and going to use a launch, it might be a good idea for a plan "B" and boots.

Water is almost at 2017 levels and appears to be heading higher
Looks like Deseronto is one of the few ramps you can launch without waders and have a good dock to tie up to, it's free, I expect a busy weekend.
Please go slow till your past the yacht club point, at most 300 yards from end of ramp, the orange sandbags you see were not put there as a decoration!
A great big THANKS to the 3 guys in a 17'+ who just gunned it 10' from dock end, swamped my dock,
got the bags all wet,
I hope you have a great day fishing! Saving grace they roared of in opposite direction from where I am heading.
LOL
Hope everybody has a good weekend, weather holds and the fish bite.
