A small marina above the first bridge on Harrods Creek is now posted as no fishing. A nice gentleman came out today and attempted to run off a couple of anglers. His comment was that the Board of the Marina had taken a vote and that the marina was now off limits to fishing..
NOW here is his problem. The Marina owns land on both sides of the creek.. yes there is a free flowing creek in the middle of this Marina.. so the "BOARD" can vote all it wants, but can not enforce the ruling, as I understand the law. Unlike the Captains Quarters, which is posted, Captains Quarters was owned property which was excavated to create the bay.. and YES I AM AWARE that some of you still disagree with this and I DO Understand.
This is only an informational post. To let you know that if you fish this particular marina you may have problems.. with the director or whomever this guy is.
PLEASE! Be polite. Let him take your picture, let him call the police as he did today.. they did not come and no one was ticketed. IF the Fish and Wildlife officer shows up point out that the Marina is on a FREE flowing body of water and that unlike Captains Quarters it is not on private property.. and that the Department told a recent tournament director that the ONLY Property on Harrods Creek that could not be fished was Captains Quarters.
