PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Private Channel Pine River
I was checking out some new crabbing grounds down the pine river and came across this "private Channel" just up from Dohles Rocks.
There is a string of 200lt blue plastic drums blocking the entrance to the creek, and a heap of which look to be non-government issued signs saying "keep out" and "private channel"
correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't all waterways below the high tide crown or state land, and also isn't it an offence to obstruct a navigable waterway?
for interest sake I'd love to know the full story here, I hope it's not some kind of elitism by a few of the local property owners.
Looking at the screen shot it's the creek on the right cuts in behind that small island. image.jpg
thoughts?

ps, I got inspected by fisheries in the pine, wonderful and very thorough gentlemen. Was great to see them down there, sadly though, it's the second time I've been inspected in 20 years of pine river use.
It is a natural waterway, in no way is it a man made canal.
The owners of the land are illegally blocking that creek off.
I have had issues with them doing this for over a decade now.
Should have asked the fisheries guys about it. Before that mcmansion was built you used to be able to drive up along it if you were game. The local degenerates hung out there and left their associated refuse behind( read used condoms needles etc) I am talking 25 years ago though. Never got much out of it. The odd cod in the crab pot was about it.
It totally slipped my mind when we were being inspected, it would have been the logical place to start.
ill shoot an email to MSQ to see what they have to say. surely there's a reasonable explanation?
