Kentucky fishing regulation????

[offdtop]

Can anyone tell me if there is a "law" not a club rule that pertains to fishing near a marina gas dock? I was having a discussion with a buddy and I have never heard of one - I have heard of "rules" pertaining too but I have never seen a "law".

The marina has a written lease with the COE or the governing body of that waterway and they can set rules about fishing etc. within so many feet of their docks or leased area.

Taken directly from page 8 of the 2009-10 fishing and boating guide, between the Cumberland River entries:

Question: May I fish around a dock or marina?

Answer: It depends. Public marinas on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lakes have contractual agreements with that address lease space on public waters. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers presently allows the marina owners or operators to post signs that prohibit fishing within 150 feet of their floating structures. These agreements do not prohibit a person from fishing in their boat rental slip. This policy does not apply to privately owned boat docks on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lakes.
