Interesting. What do they consider the "line"? Common sense would say that the white bouy and the first fence post is the "line". There is no marker on the shore that shows where the "line" is. Where you inside of that? What kind of ticket was it and how much?

I was there a couple of weeks ago when the game warden rolled up and handed out a couple of warnings at the discharge for that very reason. He explained that the boundary runs in a line from the last buoy to the point.

The point? That is rediculous. I think if they are going to hand out warnings or tickets, then they need to officially mark the area. An imaginary "line" can be interpreted in a million different ways.

I wish we got a warning ticket. Yes, apparently from the last buoy to the bank is the restricted area. We got a ticket...not a warning for fishing between the last buoy and the bank. We havent gotten the final amount of how much it will be...mostly because my parter is lazy, but it will not be cheap. I thought the area was open on either end, but its not, so be careful out there fellas.

Oh, the warden said it is illegal to tie up to the buoys also. ridiculous, i know, but just want everyone to be aware of the possibility.

Yup, knew that already. Just surprised that they can give a ticket based on a non-marked, imaginary line. Crazy!

7 years ago I saw a pontoon boat with 2 adults and herd of kids tied up to the wire fence in the middle of the outlet.....

those pics show what happens when people tie up to them (hence the reason it is against the law) the first pic shows where they are supposed to be. The second pic shows what happens when people tie up to them. They get moved and or broken off because they are not designed to hold the weight of a boat. Common sense would also dictate that the line would extend from the edge buoy to the bank in the arc that the buoys make. If the buoys are moved like the second pic then common sense should dictate that the line would extend from the outer most buoys straight to the bank.
