[QUOTE="BoomerSoonerOUalways, post: 3858652, member: 51229"] So i just moved here a few months ago, been fishing a lot but without a boat I am stuck with shore fishing. Shore fishing these huge lakes here is not easy. I noticed a lot of ponds and smaller lakes are in communities that say "fishing for residents only" BUT the state the I just moved from had signs like that to discourage people from fishing it but the actual law as long as I am not on one of the homeowners property(an open side of the lake with no homes by it) then its basically public no matter what the owners of the development or homeowners in the area think or want, I cant find any Oklahoma laws on it clarification wise. When I look it up online most of them say "Oklahoma lake or resevoir #747732" or whatever number that one is, implying its public just surrounded by a housing development. Any clarification on this? Just because there is a sign up saying "fishing residents only" doesn't mean you own it and some HOA/people are control freaks but I would like clarification as I cant find any laws on this. Obviously I am not going to walk through someones backyard or anything but there are some open sides to lakes that are barren of people but "fishing residents only" but no gates or fences. [/QUOTE]
