Nothing to really discuss other than the land owners want all the public fish and game to themselves. If you want a "private" canal or pond, dam it off, pump all public water and fish out and fill it with water from your garden hose. THEN you have a true "private" canal/pond.

So let's say you own some bottomland hardwoods. If the river comes up and your property floods you have no problem with me motoring in this "navigable" body of water and shooting ducks in there and fishing while I'm at it. After all it's public fish and game in that navigable water

That's the dumbest thing I've heard in a while

Ok. So if you buy into a deer lease next to public land, I expect you to run all the deer off your property, fence it in, and raise your own deer
