I don't know of any public launches that have gates that are locked during the summer season?I know some are locked in the off season.Does anyone have a public launch on state land that a lake homeowners association runs and locks?Launch fee=$15 and people who do not live in the surrounding towns pay $50 for a year key, others $100. If you launch and stay out past 8pm they will give you a key to drop in a mail box. Must fill out form, produce ID and truck and trailer plates are taken. They claim it was done to protect the lake from invasive species and have put in a boat wash system. Funny part is don't you use them on the way out? This issue makes me upset! I have time to contact people over the summer.
Start with Cathy Young. Her office was involved with getting them to at least allow people in under those conditions. Ask the Wizard and Dbalm......
Greg - he won't see this until ice fishing
I'm gonna walk around the block and beat you with a dead fish ole man! I got you Mac! Yes Greg from the articles I have pulled up from Olean's paper they were criticizing the Rush. Homeowners Ass.Not algae or weeds in this lake, they drain a portion and sell the water to generate power from the dam. Ass. states its to protect the docks, but they drain it down well past the docks.And I did not want to be critical but the message about the cotton wood being in the air for cats and comparison to suckers on the steelhead run, was they have both peaked and were moving toward the end.
it doesn't sound like state owned is it a toun launch that maybe the state gave a grant too?
Trapp you left out the mute swans All joking aside I’d call the regional office and ask why the state is taking care of a lake that the public can’t use do to access problems And let the press know they always like to make people famous
