[QUOTE="dblkluk, post: 401573, member: 3902"] Again. Water is public and floating in both of these states is 100% legal. Touching bottom on private ground is not. A lot of places including the Blue are very difficult to access to float and/or float and not touch bottom so this is where the "private water" interpretation comes from. The assholes on "private" stretches of the Blue have gone so far as stocking their own fish to maintain "trophy" fisheries for their big money clients. I have had multiple confrontations and tried to be bullied off "private water" by ranch owners/managers and guides/outfitters while floating several waters in Wyoming and have not backed down as I know what's legal and what isn't. They hate that. [/QUOTE]
