I cant see how they can block you from fishing. They dont own the water, yes they might own the land underneath. But in Missouri we had a simular problem with land owners and streams flowing through. This went as far to the Missouri supreme court. Courts ruled if it was navigiatble then it was public water. You must enter the water at a public access and take out. But you could float down in canoe through private property just where not allowed to leave the confinds of the water. If I lived down there, there would be a few missing gates or fences being removed by some tnt. Sorry to hear about this, just thinking about it while writing this really burns butt. If someone had the money and time I would challenge this in court. To bad you could buy the land just before getting to there place and close it off to duck hunters so they couldnt access there places.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night will keep me from crappie fishing!
