So... I took a little ride out to Lincoln to witness the horror of it all myself. Surprised to see boats coming and going all morning in spite of "closed" signs?? Several truck/trailer outfits parked in the parking with empty trailers, water skiers coming and going with boats full of kids?? No sign of any type of enforcement so not sure if they just have not had time to put up barriers or maybe content to warn and let boaters go at own risk?
My preference is for the latter... warn and let people decide for themselves if the risk is a threat to life. For launching a boat to fish and heading out to open water -- say to Bird Island -- is not the same as frolicing in the channel with whatever goo-poo may be there. Sometimes i think the people that feel the need to close the area are just trying to justify their esistence and really just do not have enouth to do. I'd like to see more effort put in to getting rid of the damn stuff and less exercise of authority to close and deny access.
The issue might be moot anyway in that the water level is dropping pretty fast now. Might have to look in to a kayak or just be religated to bank tangling. Sad situation.
How long 'til hunting season?
