Well all I can say is that as "screwed up" as Lake Lanier is it surely doesn't seem to lack for people wanting to be on it. It just seems to me that you have a burr up your saddle about wanting to have the lake all to yourself to fish without being disturbed and that any other form of enjoyment of the lake is secondary and somehow less pure.

In a way I get what you are saying, people fishing rarely ruin it for the others but the opposite can't be said about other rude boaters and their impact on people fishing. But the point I was trying to make is that the lake is a resource for anyone that wants to use it and there are a lot of good people that depend on those users for their livelihood. To discount that over you being able to fish where you want, when you want, and in total peace seems a little out of whack.

But at the end of the day there is nothing wrong with people wanting to make a living from those that use the lake or wanting to see their property values and enjoyment of the lake increase as a result of the change in the rule curve.
