Here chad I'll help.

I'm assuming this is along Red River. And if it is, and you can't reach it from the river, it's private property. Not public. Which means the old man is right and you are technically trespassing. You'd need to see the plots, but I'd be willing to bet he didn't build that dock on his neighbors property.

I think we all agree about trespassers on this board...

if salmon can legally launch his boat, he can float his boat on the lake wherever he wants (unless there is a man-made canal that is owned on both sides and can be closed off). unless i really misunderstand louisiana law.

If you have access to the lake, you have access to fish anywhere on the lake that is accessible by boat/kayak. The guy even admitted we weren't illegal just called it a "social etiquette" thing (his words not mine). We never stepped on his land or his dock, we cast underneath it from a watercraft.

Speaking of. What about that lake at St. Maurice? Not accessable prior to lock and damn. Now is?
