Dewey's Pasture Complex provides boat ramp access to Pickerel Run near Ruthven in Clay County. This access point offers a convenient launch for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats looking to explore the waterway. The ramp is well-maintained and marked, with parking available, though spaces can be limited during peak use times.
To find the ramp, take the road heading east just north of the main area, with the launch located approximately halfway down this road. The site includes basic amenities such as an outhouse. For current conditions, drawdown status, and ramp availability, check the Dewey Lake Facebook page before your visit, as water levels can impact launch conditions. This is a suitable access point for recreational paddling and fishing in the area.
