I don't think the general purpose of this discussion is about your rights to run up and down the lake IT'S about courtesy and safety.

Nobody is trying to take away your right to run up and down the lake as much as you want but when your rights infringe upon the safety of others then your rights must be restricted.

The initial proposal was a 150hp max on the lake but the tournament fishermen began calling their reps and this limitation was taken off. A 150hp rating in my opinion is also extreme for the size of the body of water.

The reason the lake was built was for creating a quality fishery but what it has turned out to be is a joke. Sure you can catch some decent fish down there if you have nerves of steel and be extra cautious to avoid the idiots who thinks that if there is water then they have the right to it regardless if that specific piece of water already has another angler using it. After almost coming to blows more than once I have removed Cedar Creek from my places to fish. To me it is not worth the headache.
