There are two dirt boat ramps - both are marked by the quagga signs that have the little forms for you to fill out and put in your windshield.
If you come in from Cache Valley, the first "ramp" you'll see is longer, narrower, and steeper than the 2nd ramp you'll find further down the road. Most people launch from the 2nd.
However, if you're kokanee fishing, I've found most of the kokanee are on the north side of the lake from the first boat ramp to damn. Troll back and forth along that north shore and I'm sure you'll catch something as long as you have a fish finder to find where they're sitting that day. I've only fished it for two seasons but 90% of the kokanee I've caught were from there. The other 10% were along the south shore just opposite the 1st ramp, east of the Porcupine river inlet.
While I've found pop gear and wedding rings work best in Strawberry, I've found mini-dodgers and mini-squids work best at Porcupine.
You should also know that the kokanee in there will always be smaller than the ones in larger waters. However, I believe the limit is 12 salmonoids of which only 4 can be trout. Meaning you can take 12 kokanee or a max of 4 browns along with 8 kokanee.
FYI there are trophy browns in there. Keep your kids out of the water or they may get eaten!
