The lake regulations change with the wind, or at least the enforcement of the lake regulations on Beaver change with the wind. I heard this year it was changed that you could not load or unload with the big motor if it was over 10hp. Like I said in MANY post before about Beaver, it is a Locals Lake (locals being mainly those that live on the lake) in my opinion. Pontoon's running max out with their 9.9's put out 4 times the wake of a fishing boat idling no matter the size motor. Totally agree with enforcing if someone with a bigger motor than 10hp not idling, but this lake should be an idle only lake with the use of any size motor to load and unload. Until they change that, the locals can have it. Might as well make it private, charge an annual fee, get rid of the Fish and Wildlife officer to another lake or area.
