Not sure about LA, but on the TN river a dock is public whether it’s privately built or not.

Does anyone have a link to laws defining if a pier or dock in a public lake connected to private property is truly private property?


Call your state fishing authority and talk to them, like TN would be TWRA.

Most neighboring property owners with docks don't think that though, they think they have more rights than they do with that permit.

I don't tend to test the land owners though. Just not to be a dick or get some nutjob come after me.
