every argument you've attempted to make is so outlandish you have shown me that you really cannot be taken seriously. Every one.

Does a landowner that places a gate on a man made canal that connects to a public waterway have to make a reasonable effort to remove all of the wildlife from the canal?

This is utter bullshite. All I do in these threads is point out the illogical arguments of the trespassers and point out the correct status of the law. What arguments are you talking about? You realize I know this topic very well, right?

Of course not.

What are landowners trying to prevent by gating navigable waterways? Access to the water, access to the land below the water, or access to the wildlife in the water?

We aren't just talking canals, a lot of the open water is supposedly privately owned.

"what if an airboat could travel over grass"

You attempted to use this as an argument for boats to be in navigable waterways.

It's absurd man.

The use of navigable in your question is curious. What made you use it?

I don't own any such water way, so it's somewhat difficult to speak for each one of these people. My guess is, since these people own the land on either side of the canal, as well as the bottom of the canal, they are trying to prevent entry onto their property.

I would compare them to roads.

I have no dog in the fight but that’s my question as well.

Also, could you possibly “gate out” a neighbor further back on the water and leave them with no access in or out?

I would assume, but that has gotten me in trouble before, that the landowner would have own all of the land, or have agreement from the other landowners.

They get jealous when people go catch a bunch of fish.

That's better than most arguments here. The State/Parish/City owns he land under the roads.

I have a gravel road on my property that I maintain without State/parish/city funds. It’s a private road. That same argument could be used for these canals. If the owners maintain it with their own funds then it’s theirs to do with as they please.

If someone’s only way of access to their property is through yours I believe you are required to grant them a right-of-way. That same argument would also apply to canals, possibly.

But who owns the water? If the landowner owns access to the water that is connected to a public waterway, do they also own the sky above their property? How high? Can they prohibit someone from flying over their property?

This all assumes no one is exiting their vessel or docking it.

500 foot starts public airspace

the land owner

The water would not be there without the effort and expense of the landowner.

Can you kindly point me to the law that states you own 500 ft about your property?

Since the landowner owns the water, can they opt out of having their water levels regulated by the fed?
