I remember stories from the past about people getting arrested for it being a private lake. Fucking rich entitleists…

I've heard locals call it "Lake No Negro"

Oh sweet! I get my Walmart raft and Bluetooth waterproof speaker out there. Maybe get one of those unicorn floats I keep seeing. I bet there's catfish in there. Need to bring the fish bait. Bloody chicken parts work great for catfish.

I have the fishing poles if somebody can bring some Pabst. Cans only though, don't want glass on the lake.

In my country all water bodies are public, and shores must be easily accessible, so no private beaches, lakes or rivers. Freshwater shores are publicly accessible up to 5 meters from the highest regular levels. If you have a river crossing your large estate, people can walk through by walking up the shore.
