Most of the time I agree when it comes to established launches and landing, but there may be times when things aren't always as they seem. Where I spear, the lake doesn't have a landing/access point so myself and the other spear fishermen who fish this particular body of water created the access point through the cat tails and have maintained it all winter by plowing/keeping it open every time the wind blows or it snows. As such, I don't feel we need to avoid the area, so I will continue to spear next to it if I choose to.
