Allegheny River Boat Launches

I'm looking for places to fish the Allegheny from a boat...  Last year I launched from Buffalo Creek in Freeport quite a few times and also Tarentum.  I'd like to get a lot further North.  How far North can is the river accessible by prop boat?  The documentation via the PFBC website is just plain terrible.  I can't make heads or tails of that website, nor can I find anything on it (and I work with web based software for a living).  Is there a launch near the 68 bridge in East Brady?

    There is a launch in east Brady and that pool is deep enough for a prop boat north of Launch but does get shallow and you need a jet boat. South of the launch to the dam which is a few miles. I've fished that area only once or twice with my jet boat and have bass boats fishing a tournament and plenty of boats pulling tubes and water skis. Pay attention going upriver so you don't get in trouble in the skinny. If you go when the water is clear you can see the bottom in at least 10 feet of water.

    there is a launch at kittaning in the river front park. on up the river you can launch at cowanshannock creek (as long as the mud is washed off not a bad launch). then templeton has a real nice launch with a dock too. these are the fish com launches that i know of.
