No fishing pitman creek???

Google who owns the waters. I don't think based on that they can limit you from fishing that area. I have read case law from the supreme court and if it is a navigable water way I don't think they can keep you out. I have not been able to find it but there is a law out of Miami Fl. out of the supreme court that speaks to this.

Did something change or happen in Pitman recently? I fished Boat club area in the spring with no problem but haven't been back since.
