DISCLAIMERS This document contains the locations of access to lakes in Polk County that are available to the general public. Since ramps are owned by local, state, and private entities, or may not be owned or maintained at all, the hours of operations, fees, maintenance, etc., will vary. This directory should not be considered an all-inclusive document. There may be other lakes or pits that have public access. It is also possible for lakes in this directory to become non public access at any time. Therefore, you should always investigate ramps prior to trying to use them. Ramp conditions will vary from time to time due to low or high waters. Polk County assumes NO responsibility for the condition of ramps other than their own. We have tried to include the ramp maintenance entity, so you can contact the proper entity if you do have a problem. Some lake access may be a clearing off of the side of a road or a right-of-way, whereas there will not be any maintenance entity. USE RAMPS OR LAKE ACCESS POINTS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Ramp Rating: This office created a ramp rating system for general condition information and should be used as a guide only. The rating may not be current depending on when the rating was done and when this document was printed. Directions to lake access sites are very specific (for those who may be new to the area) and should be easy to follow. Should you find any directions that are difficult to follow or are incorrect, please call 863-534-7377 and inform us so we can make the appropriate changes. If you know of other lakes in Polk County that are public access and are not listed in this directory please contact Michele Medani at 863-534-7377. If they are indeed public access, they may be included in this directory at a future date. 2

DEFINITIONS Canal Access Only This means that a particular lake can only be reached by a canal. Chain of Lakes If there is a check mark in this box it means that lake is part of the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. FWC Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission KWCHL Kissimmee Waterway Chain of Lakes. Lake Depth If a lake depth is available it will be listed here. Lake depth varies depending on site of measurement and may not reflect an overall lake depth of the lake. Lake Type The values for this are: *Landlocked no inflow or outflow on the lake. *Inflow some type on inflow into the lake, whether it is a stream or a ditch. *Outflow some type of outflow from the lake, whether it is a stream or a ditch. *Inflow & Outflow some type of inflow and outflow for the lake, whether it is a stream or a ditch. Lat/Lon This stands for latitude / longitude for approximate the center of the lake. NWHCL Northern Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. Ramp Checked This is the month and year that the ramp was rated. Ramp Directory Map Page Refers to the five maps on pages 13-17 in this directory. This is a generalized map of the area where the lake is located. Ramp Maint. Entity Party responsible for maintaining the boat ramp on a particular lake. Ramp Rating The definitions for the ramp ratings. Sport Fisheries and Rated by The sport fisheries refers to how the sport fishing is in a particular lake and who rated it. S-T-R Stands for Section-Township-Range used on DOT maps. Surface Area This is the surface area of a lake in acres. This is a historical value actual surface areas will vary as a lake rises and falls. SWHCL Southern Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. Vessel Information This has information about which vessels can or cannot be used in a particular lake, or any other information that may be useful or important concerning vessels and a lake. 5

BOAT RAMP RATING SYSTEM This Rating System was developed to give boaters an idea of what ramp or lake access conditions may be. USE THIS RATING SYSTEM AT YOUR OWN RISK These conditions are ALWAYS subject to change due to high or low waters or other unknown factors. Some lake accesses are actually right-of-ways off of a road and even a 4x4 vehicle could have problems. It is possible that ramps have been upgraded as well, and may be in better condition than this directory reports. It is VERY IMPORTANT to check the rating DATE before attempting to enter a lake, and you should always check the ramp out when you arrive to confirm the condition! FORMAT: (1) Relative Rating (2) (Problem Characteristics) (3) Construction (1) Relative Rating Scale Rating Generalized Meaning Excellent 4x4 vehicle not necessary; optimal launching depth; generally smooth surface, good parking Good 4x4 vehicle not generally necessary; good launching depth; ramp surface fairly smooth; adequate parking Fair 4x4 vehicle recommended; less than optimal launching depth; ramp surface may be rough; minimal parking area Poor 4x4 vehicle needed; poor launching depth; ramp surface rough or uneven; may have potholes; minimal to no designated parking area (2) (Problem Characteristics) Rough Surface; Steep Ramp; Shallow Ramp; Drop Off; Potholes; Lack of Parking; Loose Dirt Around Ramp; Fee Required (3) Construction Paved; Sand; Clay; Unpaved (grass or generic dirt); Geoweb & railroad rock EXAMPLES: Excellent Paved Good Clay Ramp Fair (shallow ramp, loose dirt, pot holes) paved Good (steep ramp) paved Good (loose dirt) paved Poor (shallow ramp, drop off, pot holes) unpaved grass or generic dirt Fair (lack of parking, pot holes, loose dirt) geoweb & railroad rock Fair (shallow ramp) sand 6

Bottom Contour Map There are several things to keep in mind when it comes to the contour maps in this directory. The maps in this document come from several sources and are not the same scale. Many of these maps are over 10 years old, and may not reflect how the bottoms are today. There are many lakes that do not have contour maps. In those cases, outlines of the lakes have been provided to give the user an idea of the shape of the lake. A (*) is placed on the contour map to show the approximate location of the boat access. This office produced some of these contours whereas others were obtained from the following agencies projects and/or reports. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Southwest Florida Water Management District U.S. Geological Survey U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bromwell & Carrier, Inc. City of Lakeland Lakes Program The contour maps for the following lakes are not actual water depths, but instead represent the mean sea level measurements: Hatchineha, Rosalie, Tiger, and Weohyakapka. 7

Polk County has been blessed with many lakes and streams. Several ordinances have been created in Polk County to help make boating an enjoyable and safe experience for everyone. WATERWAY PROTECTION CODE ORDINANCE #93-37 Any person who operates a boat upon the waters of this County shall do so in a careful and prudent manner so as to show no evidence of a wanton disregard for the safety of person or property.

No boat shall travel on a plane (not fully settled into the water) within 150 feet of any canal opening or shoreline, or 75 feet from any fixed structure which ever is the greater distance to shore, except when pulling a skier from or returning him/her to shore. Skiing shall be prohibited in channels or canals which are connected to lakes. All boats shall keep at least 300 feet behind any boat towing a skier and shall stay clear of, by at least 150 feet, any bather or boat (anchored or in motion) unless approaching at an idle speed. When a slalom course or ski jump is in use by skiers, all other boats shall stay at least 150 feet away on either side, and 600 feet from the entrance and exit. All motorboats shall yield the right of way to non-motorized boats. A boat shall not be operated by a person who is under the influence of drugs and/or alcoholic beverages to such an extent that his normal faculties are impaired to operate a boat in a safe manner.
