There is a launch in the Starbrick area as well 2 small boat launches within the city limits.....There is also one called Bonnie Brae a few miles North of Tidioute but will only be useful if the water is up somewhat due to extreme silt deposits.

There should be one in the Tionesta area but I have used it.

Their is a launch Tionesta, Tionesta Sand & Gravel Island behind the Midtown motel, look for the light house. Somehwhat limited where you can go unless you have a jet, riffles norh & south of launch. If you go south stay to the left may get a little further down but then you run into more riffles.
Also a launch by the fish hatchery, very shalow, canoes mostly.

There is suppose to be a refurbished launch somewhere along the NY/PA (Upper Allegheny) border but I forgot where it is or the name of it.......
